If you weren't running them at the same time and see the much higher values in one over the other than all bets are off. HR and RPE >>> (unless you're elite level and have previously been shown able to id load)
Check the PT calibration using instructions in the link above. If it's ok then check SRMs. If it's ok then maybe you were just fresh and your FTP is wrong.
Sadly no, I'm not DC rainmaker.
I'm basing it on similar efforts on the SRM bike at similar stages in training, at similar RPE / HR.
All this is flawed, I know, but it felt too easy for an FTP type effort.
Either that or suddenly this training malarky IS ACTUALLY WORKING.
