Frosty Posted April 29 Share The energy requirement vs expenditure bit was mind blowing, especially the average (360W) and normalised (420W) power on a 3h45-4h Epic stage. Then bottom of Z2 is 800 calories per hour. I’m guessing at that “easy” level of power, 9g/calorie of fat makes it doable. However, it’s the race pace efforts that stands out more.

The zone 2 calorie statement, is that for everyone? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MongooseMan Posted 11 hours ago Share For anyone, Energy (joules) = power (watts) x time (seconds) To get kcal Energy (kcal) = Power (watts) * Time (hours) * 3.6 So, if your zone 2 is 200W, then every hour is 200 x1x3.6=720kcal To convert to grams of carbs, divide by 4=180g (which you're unlikely to eat but gives you an idea) Happy to have my math proven wrong Sources: https://www.welovecycling.com/wide/2020/05/14/how-to-convert-watts-into-calories-burned-on-the-bike/ https://www.omnicalculator.com/conversion/grams-to-calories Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
