What’s the point of measuring power? How using a power meter can benefit your riding

BikeRadar’s digital writer, Jack Evans, talks to Tom Bell, an elite mountain biker, current UK national hill climb champion and cycling coach, about training with a power meter. Tom, who runs High North Performance coaching, explains what power means for cyclists and why it matters. All kinds of riders can benefit from measuring power, according to Tom, from beginners to advanced, and road riders to mountain bikers. Jack and Tom discuss ways to analyse your data, with both simple and advanced power metrics. Tom sets out how to use the findings to tailor your training to improve your performance.
