After 3 years of training in triathlons, I decided to get a power meter. My latest race was an olympic and my bike leg was 1:21 and 180 watts average at around 96 RPM and 155 BPM on the HRM. My question is if if can hold 30km/h at 180 watts at 85% of my HR max, what wattage should I be aiming for in training to build on this. Obviously I would need to train at a higher wattage, but how much higher? Is 20 watts enough, or is this the wrong approach to training with a Power Meter?
I'd appreciate any advice.
Cheers
Angelo
