Reading through this thread, and other [FTP](https://www.trainerroad.com/forum/t/ftp-over-estimated/35980) [over](https://www.trainerroad.com/forum/t/has-my-ramp-test-over-estimated-my-ftp/32332) [estimatation](https://www.trainerroad.com/forum/t/harsh-reality-you-over-test-on-ftps-support-group/10342) threads, I think over-estimation of FTP via ramp test should be taken seriously by TR team. I send my referral links to people in here South Korea, but almost all of them said training is way to hard. I told them to reduce their FTP value but many of them just turned to xert as xert training goes more **“Challenging, but Doable”** then TR plans. I also experienced same last year as well(just I didn’t turn to other platform but take rest and did lots of learning. Now I just descrease my FTP value with my own feeling. So easy option). Is ramp test really fit to most of people according to data recorded on TR as [Ramp Test FAQs](https://support.trainerroad.com/hc/en-us/articles/360006903031-Ramp-Test-FAQs) states? One can descrease his FTP by his own and it’s always available option, but if TR can do something more about preventing this over-estimation problem it would be incredible feature. Until see such feature available, I would count on Kolie Moore’s protocol. Much more logical and fit to me. --- _[View the full topic](https://www.trainerroad.com/forum/t/kolie-moores-ftp-test-protocol/24686)._
