Thank you for the reply, Ivy!
The in-ride instructions you cited read to me more like a word of caution about the perils of erg mode than anything prescriptive re: wattage. I suppose my question is this: would it be counterproductive to go harder than the prescribed 200% FTP? Assuming it doesn’t lead to exhausting my W’/FRC and failing the workout, that is.
Quoth @Captain_Doughnutman:
Those ‘hard stomp’ efforts are seeking Z7/neuromuscular adaptations, power targets are pretty much not applicable.
Is this indeed the case?
I tend to find that TR sweet spot efforts are difficult but doable, but the intervals prescribed above threshold tend to feel really really easy, and I just want to make sure I’m getting the most out of these workouts.
Thanks again for your help!
