The benefits of adding the dimension of
‘power’ measurement to your training methods include the following:
1. Power
is OBJECTIVE: Other training methods are subject to a
multitude of variables such as weather conditions, terrain, rider
fitness level, sleep & fatigue to name a few. With MPC and a power
meter you can strip away the difficult-to-measure impact of these kinds
of variables.
2. Power
is CONTROL: Instantaneous data output means you will be more
effective at targeting the specific physiological adaptations to
achieving your targeted racing or training goal(s). With MPC at your
side, you get instant, objective, performance feedback, which allows
you to manage your training and racing more effectively. With MPC, you
stay in control.
3. Power
is KNOWLEDGE: MPC will help you interpret the wealth of data
that your power meter provides, and determine your progress on every
ride or race and over the course of weeks, months and years. The
data enables MPC to tailor and adjust training programmes and workouts
based on your individual response to training stimuli.
For each ride, a power meter provides
power measurement as well as a wealth of other data on speed, cadence,
HR and more. With this other data factored in with your power data a
whole new dimension of training knowledge is available to you.
MPC gives you a full analysis of your power output relative to all
other factors. With this information on hand, you can specifically:
- Pinpoint your strengths and
weaknesses.
- Improve your workouts.
- See where you made that decisive
break when the hammer went down.
- Better determine your nutritional
requirements (during and outside of rides).
4. Power
is TIME: MPC helps you to manage your training time more
effectively. Riders with limited time will now be able to attain
a greater level of performance by training with power.
5. Power
is PRECISION: When you add power measurement to your training
regime, MPC will assist you accurately establish your critical training
levels and reset them as your fitness changes. As well, you can test
your technology and position for aerodynamic efficiency.
