My thoughts exactly. And I Literally just asked the question the other day. How do outdoor TR workouts impact FTP detection/Adaptive Training for indoor rides.
I find outdoor workouts easier than indoor. To the point where today’s workout; Smith -1; I would have rated between Moderate and Hard. Had if I’d done it on the trainer it would have been Very Hard to All Out. The issue with this comes to surveys and AT. I do most workouts on the trainer but if I rate the outdoor workouts truthfully then AT bumps up my workouts to an all out effort. Even if I can complete it, it’ll often bump up my workouts to where I may fail an indoor session.
Anyone else ha…
