FTP (Functional Threshold Power) tests, while challenging, are crucial for cyclists aiming to improve performance. FTP represents the maximum power you can sustain for an hour and helps define personalized training zones, allowing for more effective and targeted workouts. Conducting regular tests, such as 20-minute or ramp tests, helps monitor progress, optimize pacing strategies, and prevent overtraining, ultimately leading to improved strength, speed, and endurance on the bike.
