Without Power

Hi P&P peeps. So, I have had to send my cycleops computer back. I am now without power. How do I do my rides now? Any suggestions?

Something to note: have not been using the HR monitor, expect for the test, since I got power

    Hey Brenda, I just went thru this last week. I just quit worrying about it and went on RPE. Hardest thing was going into WKO+ and manually logging the workout, had to find previous similar workouts and go with the bare minimum for entry. I think it won't matter after I get a ton of entries by the end of the year.

    However, this becomes a little more of a pain in the butt, if you plan on testing this week. Just remember, tho the numbers are great to have, you have to play the hand that's dealt ya. You can always fall back on 'just work your a$$ off'. That is what will make you faster!

    Hang in there, know it's a big inconvenience.

    I feel naked without power. RPE it until you get your computer back. You'll be fine!

    Okay, good. Will do. RPE it is.

    Hey Brenda - in same boat as you for last 10 days. It will be interesting to see if our perceived RPE is anywhere close to the Power numbers when we get Power back.

    @ Pete - I hope I have not lost anything.

    As long as it is not race day it won't matter. No matter how hard you are going try to go just a little harder. Guarantee that you will get plenty of work done and not lose anything.
