I think what I’m struggling with is I want to use AI detection but with my actually ftp I tested.
I see. This is not possible, because AI FTP Detection is it’s own thing.
The updated AI FTP Detection you’re getting puts you around a level 3 threshold level. This will be consistent between detections, and we think this is a good insert point into your overall zone progressions to get faster.
The old AI FTP Detection was predicting the result of a ramp test, then we would make adjustments to your workout levels to try to make things incremental. That means you could end up with an FTP with a threshold level of around 1-8. Although you could still get good workouts, this wasn’t a consistent way to assess FTP from one detection to the next, or to compare it with others.
And then AI FTP Prediction is based on your recent workout performance, recovery, fatigue trends, and how your current training is expected to affect your fitness over time.
I didn’t turn it off I just haven’t accepted the new prediction because it will make my workouts too easy. My question is will it pick up my manual ftp and draw predictions off of that eventually?
It won’t make workouts too easy since it’s prescribing workouts based on watts and training history. You can manually input your FTP or use AI FTP Detection however, AI FTP Detection places you at a more optimal level so you have wider of room for fitness growth. I would actually try the lower value and see how the workouts feel. You’d be surprised
