AI FTP says 270.  
I did a ramp test : 269 + 1 muscle injury on the left quad  
🕶

I’m 41 on a high volume with a bit of experience and a good bike fit.  
Did the test with a “death wish”, rarely pushed this far.  
Everytime I do max-max at something I get an injury.  
Maybe not enough relaxed and too much tension or other parameters.

I train-cycle to work so I guess it’s better to not break the “machine”.

Thank you for the AI, arrived just in time I guess.  
I’ll keep max for the races, hoping not to break bones. 🤪
