Power Training doesn't have to be hard on the
brain cells! It is actually just working smarter, to work harder!
TrainingPeaks WKO+ co-founder, Hunter Allen, has put together this work
on how to train with power! Use the
information you find here to help you understand what TrainingPeaks WKO+
is telling you! From there, figure out your
Power Profile and you are ready to train effectively using power! |

Power Guru, Andy Coggan, Ph.D. has come up with a
remarkable system of Power Profiling! Using his syntax you can get your
profile and see where your power/weight ratio puts you against the
competition! Cycling Peaks Software will help you develop your profile
and train your weaknesses! |
 |
 |
You have done your testing, calculated your
Power Profile, now you need a good training
program. What workout should you do? How hard should you go?
How long should you do it for? We like to break it down into these
Power Levels! These will be the basis of planning your program to maximize
your training time! |
| Now that you understand your training levels,
Here is a quick little excel spreadsheet that will help you calculate your
Power Levels for your training program!
This application was designed by Andy Coggan, Ph.D. |

Now that you are training with
power, you have your Power Levels all
dialed in, how can you tell if you are doing it all right?
TrainingPeaks WKO+ provides you with state the art measuring tools to
track your fitness and power! By using the Intensity Factor,
Training Stress Score and Normalized Power, you can really tell what is
going on! Click here to find out exactly what an
IF, a TSS and Normalized Power really are!
