Cyclists are good at lying to themselves.

No matter how bad they feel, they can ignore pain, suffering, and fatigue. Unless they have an objective number (or person) telling them that they’re doing too much, they can easily dig themselves into a deep state of overtraining.

Luckily, a relatively new technology is keeping cyclists honest. Bicycle mounted power meters have made it possible for cyclists to push themselves to the limits of their ability with a much lower risk of overtraining.
