Hi,
I was wondering if someone might be able to help with me an issue I seem to be having. I recently signed up with TrainerRoad and started a plan, and everything seemed to be going well, the FTP detection was showing progress. I then fell ill and and had to take a break for a couple about seven weeks to recovered.
When I returned I did some gentle rides to make sure I was ok and then the AI detection popped up saying my FTP had dropped to 185 (23rd June), which I accepted. A week later I performed an FTP ramp test on Zwift and got a reading of 226w (30th June). The effort appears on my calendar and from what I read on the forums I had to manually adjust the FTP on my account with this new value. However, now the AI FTP prediction tells me that it won’t work unless I revert to the value it detected on the 23rd June.
Thinking back to the podcast I’ve listened to I think I remember Jonathan saying something about the AI model sometime shows a different value to what you might expect just because it’s a different of how it’s not a one off measurement. Is that the case here and I need to drop back 41w?
Also just to be clear I’m pretty sure this is my fault and I’ve done something wrong to cause this situation. I’m not having a moan about the system call it PEBKAC. Anyone had this happen before and enlighten me as to what I should do?
Thanks in advance for any help.
Keith
