What sort of watts per kilo does it take to compete in the biggest race in the world?

Today we are talking about power-to-weight ratios, the cumulative effects of fatigue, and how training compares to racing. And what better context for these topics than the biggest race in the world, the Tour de France Femmes.

Today we are delighted to be talking with Nina Buijsman of Human Powered Health. Nina raced the Tour de France Femmes and seemed to get stronger each day, or at least placed better every day, finishing 21st on the brutally steep Super Planche stage 8 to finish 25th overall.

On this podcast we talk about the cumulative effects of fatigue, and how training compares to racing, and what Nina's experience was in terms of her power data, her sleep data, and how she felt throughout the Tour de France Femmes.
