I did my TR ftp (2x8) test last night and totally messed it up as I went too hard in the first interval had nothing left for the second one. I got what I feel is quite an optimistic ftp and was wondering if many people have done much using virtual power and a real power meter? Is it normal for virtual power to over estimate?
I know as long as it's consistent then it's fine to train with, but obviously I'm curious. If anyone is willing to lend me a power meter for an evening (wheel or pedal I guess) I will re do the test to see what the difference is!
