Functional Threshold Power Testing
|
|
Ride with Power and Know Thyself
The FTP power test measures a user‘s ‘best effort’ baseline fitness level. This measurement allows the ICG spin bike computer to establish your personal
5 colored training zones.
What is
FTP?..... FTP is short for Functional Threshold Power. It is the threshold from functional exercise that you can maintain, to the non-functional red zone exercise that you can sustain for a relatively short period. The functional power threshold is between the top of the yellow (zone 4) and the bottom of the red zone (zone 5) in relation to the color zones on our new ICG spin bikes
FTP TESTING WITHIN SCHEDULED SPIN CLASSES
Wednesday, March 6th, 9:15am: Spin w/ Jennifer

Please be aware that this workout will be an all-out challenge. Do not do a very hard workout the day before, get a good night's sleep, and properly fuel up the day of testing.
The test: You will be warming up for 15-20 minutes, riding through a range of RPM's in zones 1-4, followed by the 5-minute Power Test. For 5 minutes you'll be riding with a high resistance, while maintaining a minimum of 80 RPM's. Once the 5-minute test is over, your FTP will be displayed on the screen. We will then take 5-10 minutes to review the numbers and compare your predicted FTP to your actual FTP. We will leave time to address any questions and celebrate your new FTP scores!
