1000 watts for one minute. Is it true?

That’s a very strong effort to sustain that power for that duration. Good work. :+1:t2:

May I ask, what’s your current body weight and FTP?

Most of these efforts are from a year ago and hoping to get back to these sprint levels next season, as i lost alot of top end this season. 1000 for 45 is certainly doable, not shown on the chart but i drop below 1000w at 40s, so another 5 seconds isnt too bad, another 20 seconds, maybe not

I’m around 190lb / 86kg and 6’1 / 185cm. According to all the calculators my FTP is around 315w but the highest I’ve seen on an actual ride was an average of around 285w for the first hour and 270w for a second hour. If I try to go harder for one hour I will crack much earlier and need to slow down to recover. But I can reliably crank out 1550w for 5s (out of saddle) and little under 1000w seated for 30s a few times during 2 hour group rides. I often get dropped on hills unless they’re short.

Goodness that’s a lot of watts.

Comparison really is the thief of joy.

I can do 1 watt for 1,000 hours. It’s a long sprint :astonished:

That’s really interesting context.

Your peak and 5s power is impressive when taken in context to your FTP.

Nice work :muscle:t2:
