How accurate is a Ramp Test? I tried holding my FTP for 1 hour
After my ramp test video was well received (thanks so much!), one question from the comments was clear: How accurate is a ramp test for determining FTP? In this video, I put my estimated FTP of 292 watts to the ultimate test by attempting to hold it for a full hour. Spoiler: it wasn’t easy. But was the ramp test number legit, or did it overestimate my ability? in this video I break down: The science of FTP: How the ramp test calculates your number. The effort: Can I actually sustain 292 watts for 60 minutes? The factors: Why your results depend on day-to-day form, fatigue, fueling, and more. 💬 What do you think? Is the ramp test accurate for you, or do you use another method to measure FTP?
