Seriously fella, if you can churn out 500 Watts plus for 5 minutes and you weight 65kg then you should be world class pro cyclist. Chris Boardman averaged around 7.86 W/kg for a little over 4 minutes during his world record pursuit - your 500W for 5 minutes would be 7.69W/kg.

I sense a big fat helping of forum bullsh@t here

Might it be that you can churn out 500 Watts for more like a minute? That'd put you on a par with many a 2nd/3rd/4th Cat racer.

My local gym doesn't have the escalator device, but it does have a 'stepper', a kind of staircase simulator, it's absolute hell, I last about 3 minutes on it.

It's same at my gym, only the stepper/escalator thing and struggle to get to 10mins without collapsing. Good tho.

there are times when I feel my front LED is putting out more watts than me
