  • For reference I can do 450ish for 5 at 74kg. And I have a threshold around 350ish.

    You should be able to be a LOT faster with training.

    If your value of 450 is correct. To have a threshold as low at 260 you must do very little cycling. I basically got on a bike and had a threshold around that. And a little training took it north of 300 quickly.

    Oh. Sod Vo2 work now. Just ride as much as you can now. And loose as much weight as you can without sacrificing much power. Or just be chill and have fun... and beer.

  • 450w for 5 minutes is much more difficult than 450w for 3 minutes surely? Much more aerobic component?

  • Yes, certainly. However it was a ballpark statement to give an idea. 3 mins is still pretty much aerobic.

    I don't think it's a million miles away, especially if doing little training.
