I looked at the thread that discusses the fact that many users FTP went down at the launch of the new AI upgrade. I had the opposite issue. My FTP jumped from around 271 to 291 (the highest it’s ever been!). Not that I’m complaining because my workouts feel much more productive, even my “easy” days feel like I’m still getting some work in, and my hard days feel right at the edge of what I’m capable of doing. I’m sure that is the exact result of what the team at TR was looking for, but I’m just still surprised at how much my FTP did jump. I’m certainly curious to see where this takes my conditioning.

Same story here - was on the Beta, so just got it a few weeks earlier.
I learnt me to respect my hard days. Don’t go running 10-15k in the morning of a hard ride. Don’t do SS the evening before Threshold, otherwise that significant workout will be compromised.
On my “old FTP” I could get away with those habits. But it’s amazing how you adapt to it… And 3 weeks in, SS now feels like SS, Threshold feels like something you’re not reeeally looking forward to and VO2 Max is… well ja, VO2Max. And to give you an idea, my previous lower end VO2Max was about the same as the “unders” I’ll be doing tomorrow. Yet I’m confident of doing the workout, having grown into it.
