FasCat Cycling Training Tips Podcast3 Mai 2024

Your gravel training is wrong. Here's what you should be doing

Gravel training is not the same as training for the road, and therefore you should pay attention to different power-based metrics. FTP is not as important nor is your peak 20-minute power. Nor your 5-minute power. So what should you be looking at and trying to improve?

In this podcast, we give you the power-based metrics you should pay attention to for your gravel training and racing!

What's important is how long you can ride hard. That's way more important than your 60-minute FTP power when it comes to gravel racing.

In fact, you can have a low FTP but great 5-hour power. We can that strength 'diesel watts'. Are you a diesel? If so you are probably good at gravel racing!

To see what effective gravel training is like including the new Gravel Power workout described in this podcast, try the FasCat app, where the first month is now free!
