Well done!

 

Maybe a stupid question, but what is the number after your time in minutes?

My turn for a stupid question.

 

If one only uses a HRM for training, how does tss compare to using a power meter?

 

I understand the lag when using a HRM so the effort at a specific point is not 100% accurate, but surely the form, fatigue and performance graph would still be at a similar ratio - but not necessarily the same tss score.

Don't know the ins and outs.

But sold my PM and cycled for about 2 months on HR (Powercal) only.

The yellow part is the TSS calculated and the subsequent graphs that was spat out during that time.

This part you can get from Heartrate only, TRIMP in Golden Cheetah allows you to look at heartrate only.

 

Or get a free account with training peaks which it will give you a heartrate TSS and you just plunk that into your "excel" formulated sheet and it will calculate TSB, CTL and ATL for you.

I have been using TrainingPeaks for a while to track my rides, so I have a vague understanding of the whole concept.

 

My question was more related to the accuracy of HR-based vs. PM-based fitness.

 

For example, my hrTSS for the Race for Victory last week was 294 over a 3:00:21 workout. Considering 100 is the maximum TSS score for an hour's workout, my score would indicate I was close to maximum (HR) for almost the entire ride. It doesn't mean I was above my threshold as I had set my HRM limits according to my LTHR that was calculated in TrainingPeaks.

I rode to this plan to get there, I would be interested to see what everyone is doing?

 

Tuesday

- 60min @ 230-270 with 20x 10sec @540

 

 

ETC

 

Whooaah

Some serious numbers there

Good stuff

Thanx for sharing

Maybe your LTHR is higher than what is stipulated in the program?

 

My PMC-based on power and TRIMP which is HR looks very similar.

TSS 841.2

IF 0.66

how many hours did you put in to get to 800+ TSS points?

 

Trained around 14 hours for 600 TSS points
