Takeaways

  • Determining FTP can be done through ramp tests or 20-minute efforts, but it's important to prioritize accurate threshold and tempo ranges.
  • During recovery from an injury, it's crucial to focus on recovery rather than training and to listen to your body's healing process.
  • When preparing for an Everesting challenge, pacing and nutrition are key factors to consider, and it's important to test your pacing and bike setup in advance.
  • Maintaining aerobic fitness and gradually increasing intensity can help in preparing for an Everesting attempt.
  • Specificity in training is important for all types of racing, and tailoring your training to the demands of the event is crucial for success.
