This will be consistent between detections, and we think this is a good insert point into your overall zone progressions to get faster.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The old AI FTP Detection was predicting the result of a ramp test, then we would make adjustments to your workout levels to try to make things incremental. That means you could end up with an FTP with a threshold level of around 1-8. Although you could still get good workouts, this wasn\u2019t a consistent way to assess FTP from one detection to the next, or to compare it with others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You\u2019ll see your FTP recalibrated through AI FTP detection today. This doesn\u2019t mean that you\u2019re stronger\/weaker than before.&nbsp;<strong>This is kind of like buying a new bathroom scale that is more precise.<\/strong>&nbsp;Just because the number changed by +\/- 5 lbs doesn\u2019t mean your weight changed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Range of Changes<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Early in the forum TrainerRoad AI beta thread (it was private), there was an idea that the new AI FTP Detection overestimated people\u2019s FTP\u2019s and everyone was getting an increase. We saw a few people post big +10% FTP increases, and people ran with that as fact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Because we\u2019re recalibrating to about a level 3 threshold workout being able to be completed in the expected zone, if you had an athlete level higher than that, your FTP would increase, and lower than that, your FTP would decrease.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"648\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.trainerroad.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/image-1024x648.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-77227 lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.trainerroad.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/image-1024x648.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.trainerroad.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/image-300x190.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.trainerroad.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/image-768x486.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.trainerroad.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/image-50x32.jpg 50w, https:\/\/www.trainerroad.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/image-1600x1012.jpg 1600w, https:\/\/www.trainerroad.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/image-1536x971.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.trainerroad.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/image-scaled.jpg 2048w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1024px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 1024\/648;\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Threshold Level<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>&lt; 3 FTP Decrease<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>3-4 About the same<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>4-6 FTP Increase<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>7+ Large Increase<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"726\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.trainerroad.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/image-1-1024x726.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-77228 lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.trainerroad.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/image-1-1024x726.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.trainerroad.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/image-1-300x213.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.trainerroad.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/image-1-768x544.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.trainerroad.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/image-1-50x35.jpg 50w, https:\/\/www.trainerroad.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/image-1-1600x1134.jpg 1600w, https:\/\/www.trainerroad.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/image-1-1536x1088.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.trainerroad.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/image-1.jpg 1784w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1024px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 1024\/726;\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Workout Performance after new AI FTP Detection<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>We measure your first workout after an AI FTP Detection, and we see improvements in fail rate and expected outcome with our new AI FTP Detection + TrainerRoad AI vs the old system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Our failure rate for the \u201chard\u201d zones is sitting right at 2.0%, which is right within our targeted failure rate (we calibrate for some in the predictions).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That\u2019s a 33% improvement compared to the old AI FTP Detection!&nbsp;<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"20\" height=\"20\" data-src=\"https:\/\/emoji.discourse-cdn.com\/apple\/exploding_head.png?v=15\" alt=\":exploding_head:\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" class=\"lazyload\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 20px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 20\/20;\">&nbsp;<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"20\" height=\"20\" data-src=\"https:\/\/emoji.discourse-cdn.com\/apple\/tada.png?v=15\" alt=\":tada:\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" class=\"lazyload\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 20px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 20\/20;\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The bottom bar shows athletes who used the new AI FTP Detection, then ignored TrainerRoad AI and chose their own workout.

Then, when the athlete actually tries the workout, it feels perfect!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is because the AI is just trying to incrementally increase the watts you\u2019re doing. So even though you might have a big FTP bump, the watts you\u2019re doing for your intervals are still similar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.trainerroad.com\/forum\/t\/metrics-on-new-ai-ftp-detection-trainerroad-ai\/110202#p-943371-faq-1\"><\/a><strong>FAQ<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>I still don\u2019t think this is right<\/strong>\u2026.<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>If you don\u2019t think it is right, I recommend looking at the actual watts being prescribed to you, then finding a recent workout of the same interval length\/structure, checking those watts, and comparing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>4&#215;10 @ 250 watts is the same if that\u2019s at 96% FTP or 101% FTP. Watts are really what we\u2019re after.

But if you found you could hold your FTP for X minutes at a level 5 threshold, that will be the same in the new system. You could also self-adjust your FTP down\/up until the AI gives you a level 5 if you have a one-time pacing question.
