F\u00f6rra veckan pratade vi om det begr\u00e4nsade v\u00e4rdet av att j\u00e4mf\u00f6ra genomsnittliga watt mellan olika \u00e5k. Idag kommer vi att diskutera ett cykelm\u00e5tt som kallas Intensity Factor (IF) som \u00e4r nyckeln till att f\u00f6rst\u00e5 den relativa sv\u00e5righetsgraden och hur du kan anv\u00e4nda den f\u00f6r att j\u00e4mf\u00f6ra tr\u00e4ningseffektiviteten f\u00f6r var och en av dina turer.Last week<\/a>\u00a0we talked about the limited value of comparing the average watts between different rides. Today we will discuss a cycling metric referred to as the Intensity Factor (IF) that is key to understanding the relative difficulty level and how you can use it to compare the training efficacy of each and every one of your rides.<\/span><\/p>\n

Vad \u00e4r normaliserad kraft?What is Normalised Power?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Innan vi kan f\u00f6rst\u00e5 OM m\u00e5ste vi diskutera ett m\u00e5tt som kallas normaliserad effekt. Av olika anledningar fastst\u00e4llde vi att genomsnittliga watt har begr\u00e4nsat v\u00e4rde. En ryttare kan genomf\u00f6ra tv\u00e5 \u00e5k och \u00e4nd\u00e5 hamna p\u00e5 samma snitt trots att den fysiologiska ”kostnaden” \u00e4r v\u00e4sentligt olika.Before we can understand IF we must discuss a metric called normalised power. For various reasons we determined that average watts have limited value. A rider can complete two rides and still end up with the same average despite the physiological \u201ccost\u201d being significantly different. <\/span><\/p>\n

Normaliserad effekt \u00e4r en uppskattning av den effekt som du kunde ha bibeh\u00e5llit f\u00f6r samma fysiologiska ”kostnad” om din effekt hade varit helt konstant, snarare \u00e4n variabel. I en steady-state-resa kommer din genomsnittliga effekt (AP) och normaliserad effekt (NP) att vara lika. I vilken typ av tr\u00e4ningspass eller lopp som helst, d\u00e4r det f\u00f6rekommer \u00f6kningar i kraft eller intervaller f\u00f6ljt av \u00e5terh\u00e4mtning, kommer AP och NP att vara olika. Ju mer varians och arbete \u00f6ver tr\u00f6skeln, desto st\u00f6rre \u00e4r skillnaden mellan de tv\u00e5, och desto sv\u00e5rare blir \u00e5kturen.Normalised power is an estimate of the power that you could have maintained for the same physiological \u201ccost\u201d if your power output had been perfectly constant, rather than variable. In a steady-state ride, your average power (AP) and normalised power (NP) will be similar. In any type of training session or race, where there are surges in power or intervals followed by recovery, the AP and NP will be different. The more variance and work above threshold, the greater the difference between the two, and the more difficult the ride.<\/span><\/p>\n

NP-v\u00e4rdet s\u00e4ger oss dock fortfarande inte hur sv\u00e5r resan var j\u00e4mf\u00f6rt med v\u00e5r FTP, det tar inte h\u00e4nsyn till hur l\u00e4nge anstr\u00e4ngningen p\u00e5gick, och det till\u00e5ter inte heller att j\u00e4mf\u00f6ra skillnaden i kondition inom eller mellan individer.The NP value however still does not tell us how difficult the ride was compared to our FTP<\/a>, it does not take into account how long the effort was sustained for, nor does it allow for comparing the difference in fitness within or between individuals.<\/span><\/p>\n

V\u00e4rdet av IFThe value of IF<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

OM f\u00f6r en \u00e5ktur anger intensiteten p\u00e5 en \u00e5ktur. Det ber\u00e4knas som f\u00f6rh\u00e5llandet mellan NP och din FTP. Detta \u00e4r mycket v\u00e4rdefullt eftersom det alltid kommer att vara relativt din nuvarande konditionsniv\u00e5 m\u00e4tt via din kraft vid tr\u00f6skelanstr\u00e4ngningar. En tur med ett IF p\u00e5 1,0 skulle vara lika med en all-out-anstr\u00e4ngning p\u00e5 din FTP-niv\u00e5 i 60 minuter.The IF of a ride indicates the intensity of a ride. It is calculated as the ratio of the NP to your FTP.\u00a0 <\/span>This is very valuable because it will always be relative to your current fitness level measure via your power at threshold efforts. A ride with an IF of 1.0 would equal an all out effort at your FTP level for 60 minutes.<\/span><\/p>\n

F\u00f6rest\u00e4ll dig att tv\u00e5 ryttare genomf\u00f6r exakt samma \u00e5ktur. Rider A har en NP p\u00e5 260W. Rider B har en NP p\u00e5 200W, men b\u00e5da kan ha en IF p\u00e5 0,85 (85 % anstr\u00e4ngning). Trots deras uppenbara skillnad i r\u00e5effekt, klarade de b\u00e5da effektivt samma sv\u00e5righetsgrad under sina respektive \u00e5kturer.Imagine two riders complete the exact same ride. Rider A has a NP of 260W. Rider B has a NP of 200W, yet both can have an IF of 0.85 (85% effort). Despite their obvious difference in raw power output, they both effectively completed the same difficulty within their respective rides.<\/span><\/p>\n

Vad \u00e4r en bra OM?What is a good IF?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Detta h\u00e4nvisar tillbaka till Ryans fr\u00e5ga n\u00e4r han fr\u00e5gade om genomsnittliga watt och hur n\u00e4ra hans FTP den borde vara. Intensiteten kommer alltid att p\u00e5verkas av varaktigheten. Om tr\u00f6skelinsatser kan h\u00e5llas i en timme, kommer suprathreshold-insatser att h\u00e5llas i mindre \u00e4n en timme och undertr\u00f6skel kan h\u00e5llas l\u00e4ngre \u00e4n en timme.This refers back to Ryan\u2019s question when he asked about average watts and how close to his FTP it should be. Intensity will always be impacted by duration. If threshold efforts can be held for an hour, suprathreshold efforts will be held for less than an hour and subthreshold can be held for longer than an hour.<\/span><\/p>\n

Typiska IF-v\u00e4rden f\u00f6r olika tr\u00e4ningspass, lopp och varaktigheter \u00e4r f\u00f6ljande:Typical IF values for various training sessions, races, and durations are as follows:<\/span><\/p>\n

< 0,75 \u00e5terh\u00e4mtningsturer< 0.75 recovery rides <\/span><\/p>\n

0,75-0,85 tr\u00e4ningsturer i uth\u00e5llighetstakt0.75-0.85 endurance-paced training rides<\/span><\/p>\n

0,85-0,95 tempoturer, aeroba och anaeroba intervallpass, l\u00e4ngre (>2,5 h) landsv\u00e4gslopp0.85-0.95 tempo rides, aerobic and anaerobic interval workouts, longer (>2.5 h) road races<\/span><\/p>\n

0,95-1,05 laktat tr\u00f6skelintervall (endast arbetsperiod), korta landsv\u00e4gslopp, crits, 40k TT0.95-1.05 lactate threshold intervals (work period only), short road races, crits, 40k TT <\/span><\/p>\n

1.05-1.15 15k TT, banpo\u00e4nglopp1.05-1.15 15k TTs, track points race<\/span><\/p>\n

> 1.15 prolog TT, banjakt> 1.15 prologue TT, track pursuit<\/span><\/p>\n

En s\u00e4rskilt anv\u00e4ndbar till\u00e4mpning av IF \u00e4r att kontrollera om det finns f\u00f6r\u00e4ndringar i tr\u00f6skeleffekten \u2013 n\u00e4rmare best\u00e4mt \u00e4r en IF p\u00e5 mer \u00e4n 1,05 f\u00f6r ett lopp som varar ungef\u00e4r 1 timme ofta ett tecken p\u00e5 att f\u00f6rarens tr\u00f6skeleffekt faktiskt \u00e4r st\u00f6rre \u00e4n den som f\u00f6r n\u00e4rvarande \u00e4r inskriven i programmet.One particularly useful application of IF is to check for changes in threshold power \u2013 specifically, an IF of more than 1.05 for a race that is approximately 1 hour in duration is often a sign that the rider\u2019s threshold power is actually greater than that presently entered into the program. <\/span><\/p>\n

Inte alla program eller cyklar har f\u00f6rm\u00e5gan att ber\u00e4kna NP och IF.Not all programs nor bikes have the capability to calculate NP and IF.<\/span><\/p>\n

CicloZone anv\u00e4nder en egenutvecklad ber\u00e4kning som kallas COL som l\u00e5ter individer f\u00f6rst\u00e5 hur sv\u00e5ra deras tr\u00e4ningspass \u00e4r i f\u00f6rh\u00e5llande till deras FTP. Som ett resultat ser varje CicloZone-tr\u00e4ning till att du arbetar med r\u00e4tt intensitet f\u00f6r dig under den optimala tiden f\u00f6r att leverera resultat. Ladda ner appen p\u00e5 App Store eller Google Play. CicloZone uses a proprietary calculation referred to as COL<\/a> which allows individuals to understand how difficult their workouts are relative to their FTP.\u00a0 As a result, every CicloZone workout makes sure you work at the right intensity for you for the optimum amount of time to deliver results.
