Maintaining Fitness, Rest Days, Feed Zones, and More – Ask a Cycling Coach 361

Around 23:10, when @Nate_Pearson is talking about the “Fitness Score” (specifically his “third” topic at 24:23), I think something like that could be worth a closer look. We’ve seen plenty of discussion about the Progression Levels and their subjective nature relative to the FTP changes over time.

Add in the discussion under Nate’s Absolute PL topic, I think there is reason to maybe have a better relative marker for current “fitness”. I honestly got lost in that topic above, but think there is some potential for this being a useful item in the moment but more as tracked over time. I think more discussion about that or a related value is worthwhile.
