How To Calculate Your Functional Threshold Power (FTP)
Nice video from GCN about how to calculate your FTP, or Functional Threshold Power to give its full name, which has become a hot topic in cycling circles.
Functional Threshold Power is the maximal sustainable power output a rider can hold for one hour but what’s the best way to work it out? And what happens if you don’t have a powermeter? This video does a good job of explaining and is well worth a watch.
