A tool designed to help cyclists determine the optimal power output or speed required to achieve a specific goal, such as completing a course within a target time or maximizing performance over a particular distance, often considers factors like terrain, wind resistance, and the athlete’s physiological parameters.
Effective power distribution strategies are essential for achieving optimal performance in cycling. These strategies can prevent early fatigue and wasted energy, particularly in longer races or challenging terrains. Historically, cyclists relied on intuition and experience for pacing. However, advances in technology and sports science have enabled more precise and data-driven approaches. This allows athletes to tailor their output more accurately, leading to potential improvements in performance and efficiency.
