Oooh, seriously tempted. Though I'd need some proper measuring equipment.
And I'm waiting on an appointment date for a treadmill ECG test to (hopefully) give me the green like to properly push myself. I can safely do subthreshold efforts though, so sweetspot and FTP building should be okay?

I've got a pair of body-composition scales, but I would imagine it'd make most sense for both parties to have the same ones? Other than that I have a powermeter and a Garmin, I think that's all that would be needed.
I can do an FTP test tomorrow, it'd be horrific (tested at 245 last year then sat on my arse ever since), but would provide a baseline. Let me know if you're interested in doing this - we should pick a day of the month for fat% and FTP testing.
Dammit
I could do with a partner/competitor to motivate me- I'm a long way from fit now.
Ideally the contest would be lean mass vs wobble mass %, plus something like w/kg so the relative size would not come into it.
i.e. I'm 187cm, 81.5kg, and w/kg is likely at around 2.5.
I'd like to get back to ~78kg and as close to 4 w/kg as possible. I was at this point a few years ago before I became a lazy fattie and would like to get back to it as I enjoyed the bike a lot more.
Could also throw in a sub-20 5k as a target.
Any takers?
