a 30w jump in ftp is pretty big so likely your 230w guess was low
That would suggest I'd not lost any fitness in 3 months though
Either way, rested all weekend and decided to ride outside instead today. The first hour my legs felt exactly the same, weak and anything in Z4 hurt like hell. Then bizarrely after an hour, felt amazing. I know it's not a great assessment as riding outside is very different to indoors, but I'm thinking that maybe my legs just need a decent hours warmup before hammering any workouts on the turbo
Or I should only ride outside 🤷🏼♂️

hippy
It also sounds like you have actually been doing the last six weeks a little too easy, a 30w jump in ftp is pretty big so likely your 230w guess was low.
Now you are trying to do the workouts correctly and the seem too hard. I would personally rest, then do the next one at 90%, building up to 100% progressively.
