So from that then you need to work on endurance im guessing.
How long is the actual test

I only did 23min Dean so just shy of the hour, 20m all out to come and then a further 1 min all out effort after a rest. You need the last 2 to identify strengths and weaknesses. That said, currently I am an attacker!

Be interesting to see what you are after the hour.

Sufferfest.
I used it 4y ago and really like using it. Changed a lot In the meantime working with a coaching company and relied upon them to help develop the 4dp approach to fitness testing. Once you do the test they tailor your erg based workouts to your strengths and weaknesses and whatever training plan you are interested in. All video based and from UCI and world tour races. Strikes a nice balance between TR and Zwift.

Of course it could be like the joke when a heavy person gets on the scales that speak your weight. The scales say one person at a time please.

You finish the hour of your 4DP test. Then a prompt comes up saying, warm up complete, now the test... This kind of happened the first time I did a FTP test. Knackered myself during the warm up phase thinking I had started the test, then the test started...

Ha! I was so worried an hour seemed so short I triple checked the video guide and write up!

Couple of Pro scalps Although to be fair they are just having a bit of fun. Mould had huge gap on last climb and took foot off gas.

Cheers, felt good today. Was surprised when I saw the last 200m counting down. Hardly had time to sprint.
Would like to get to that 4w/kg, mmmmmm

The other non pro riders must hate having to face you in a sprint.
