Hi all -
I've got a new PT, had the LT test done so I know my LT and have done my first workout with it. I noticed the watts number jumped around quite a bit during the spin parts of the workout, varying up to 15w from what felt like second to second without any perceived change of effort or change of gear.
First, is this typical behavior?
Second, is it a result of me or the PT?
Third, is there any way to change the sample rate, other than setting the recording rate at "1" or "2"? I'd rather do samples every 10 seconds so when I'm doing a steady spin I'm not driving myself nuts trying to keep it exactly on the right number.
I noticed a huge difference in my effort level when using the PT to keep me "honest". It is a great tool and I want to be sure I'm using it correctly.
Thanks!
