Tried holding holding 315w (291w FTP) for the 20 min effort and stopped at the 8 minute mark. Mentally, I just couldn't go deep enough. I then sat on the bike for 5 minutes, felt pretty ashamed, and tried TR's Ramp Test. Stopped right at the 130% FTP mark (So, no improvements).
Question: Do I retest? If so, when? This afternoon? Tomorrow? A week from now?
Today is the start of a final 8 week build for a 70.3. I'm nowhere near how fast I was going into my last half iron and it's incredibly demotivating. I spent the last 8 weeks hitting every TR workout to perfection, yet no increase in FTP.
