I have always been curious about watts and wondered how many I could produce. Tonight was the night to get my answers and OUCH did it hurt. J Dub offered to let me use his testing lab to get my numbers. I am using the numbers from tonight as a baseline and hope to retest each month. Having been gone 5 of the last 7 weeks and having very limited spin/trainer time I went in with no expectations. Here is the data for round 1:
20 min. TT
Avg watts – 329
Power-Weight-4.28
Avg HR – 165
Max HR – 173
Avg cadence – 97
Max cadence – 105
Avg. speed – 26.1 MPH
Max speed – 30.1 MPH
Distance covered – 8.69 miles
I was pleasantly surprised! Hopefully this translates into keeping me out of the cellar in the Desert rampage this weekend!!!
