Hello, I am already apologizing for my bad English, unfortunately I have to work with the google translation.
Can someone explain to me more exactly how the Edge 1030 performs the FTP test?
had with the Edge 1000 hergenwie more "trust" in the test. There he was better for me. Retract, short intervals to prepare the legs then a 20 min time trial.
Also tried yesterday with the new Edge 1030.
Test started as described in the manual.
Warm up until you press the Lap button, I find a good supplement so you start the test when you arrived at the desired stretch of road.
After that everything new for me compared to the old test.
4 minutes intervals starting below the threshold, this interval then immediately after 4 min.
The next interval blocks were steadily increased.
After about 17 - 18 minutes, roughly estimated, he simply switched to normal operation.
In addition, I would like to know if the given value is already indicated with the recommended 5% deduction or this was the average performance that I gave about the test.
What is the advantage of an FTP test, if you have enabled the automatic FTP detection. Could you then not just warm up, 20 minutes exchange gas to give? The automatic FTP detection should then remember that because the FTP threshold was new (better or worse).
