Find Strength & Weekness

If you want to ride your favorite course well or achieve good results in a competition, you need to analyze both the course and the rider's strengths and weaknesses. This analysis allows you to strategize and tailor your training to focus on specific abilities.

Utilizing Abilities and Preferences

By utilizing the capabilities and preferences on the Riduck dashboard, you can quickly identify your strengths and weaknesses without the need for complex charts or calculations. Depending on your goals, you can then focus on maximizing your strengths or improving your weaknesses through tailored training.

Using the Power Profile

The power profile chart in Riduck allows you to simultaneously view my maximum power (peak power) and "expected power," unlike the typical power profile chart (power curve).

• Training to increase the segments where expected power and peak power are similar can specialize in the strengths while efficiently raising the FTP.

• Conversely, effective training in segments where there's a significant difference between expected power and peak power can raise the expected power to a level similar to peak power, thereby addressing weaknesses.

For example,

• 1초나 5초 파워는 기대파워에 근접하지만 10분, 20분 파워는 기대파워 대비 다소 떨어지는 라이더가 10분 ~ 20분 파워 증가를 위한 훈련을 진행해 실제 해당 파워 구간에 대한 기량 상승을 이뤄내면, 기존보다 업힐을 좀 더 효율적으로 올라갈 가능성이 높습니다.

• 대회에서 스프린터를 맡은 선수가 훈련을 통해 1분 내외의 파워를 집중적으로 상승시키면, 전략을 효과적으로 수행 할 가능성이 높아집니다.

• A rider whose 1-second or 5-second power is close to their expected power but whose 10-minute or 20-minute power is slightly lower relative to their expected power can improve their capabilities in those power zones through training. By doing so, they can increase their efficiency in climbing compared to before.

• A sprinter entrusted with a sprinting role in a competition can increase their power output for about a minute through focused training, increasing the likelihood of executing strategies effectively.
