Based on the Peak Power (MMP) in actual riding activities from the past 12 weeks and the FTP (Functional Threshold Power) estimated by Riduck,
you can review the Power Curve. To view specific power information for a particular time, hover your mouse over or click on the corresponding time range.
If you double-click on a specific time range, it will select the riding activity where that peak power was achieved.
If no specific activity is selected, you can check the Expected Power and Power Match by clicking on the button at the top of the chart.
Expected Power is the power that is expected to be maintained by the rider based on their riding data and FTP for a specific duration.
If you plan to use the Expected Power for outdoor long-distance rides, it's generally appropriate to ride with 5-10% lower than the calculated Expected Power.
In outdoor riding, when using power data from a power meter, and indoors using power data from indoor trainers like smart trainers, discrepancies can occur even when riding with the same intensity and routine. A Power Match value close to 0% means less error between outdoor and indoor data. A higher Power Match value can lead to FTP being measured higher than your actual capacity, making accurate analysis and proper training more challenging.
For precise analysis and to minimize errors due to device variations, recording data with the same power meter device both indoors and outdoors is recommended.
High-intensity training that is conducted exclusively indoors using a smart trainer and low-intensity outdoor rides may result in a higher Power Match value than the actual capacity.
By selecting a specific riding activity from the activity list at the bottom, you can compare Power Curve and MMP-based Power Curve for that specific riding activity.
Double-clicking on the time-specific maximum power point in the Power Curve will allow you to review the activity where the maximum power was recorded at that specific time.
