First Ride Using FatMaxxer For Aerobic Conditioning

Trying to Keep DFAA1 Between 0.75 and 1.00

Today’s Ride was just the first step in what will arguably be a four to six week effort to establish a BASE of AEROBIC Fitness. I rode just under 60 minutes, and used the information from FatMaxxer to keep my riding intensity at maximum aerobic intensity.

Yesterday, the Collier DFAA1 Ramp Protocol showed that if I kept my Vo2max under 40ml/kg/min, my HR below 160bpm, and my wattage below about 167 watts, that would be the ideal intensity.

Today, I rode for DFAA1, using the FatMaxxer on my screen, and I increased or decreased my intensity based on that. I DID dip below 0.75 a few times, but not by much, and not for long. It burned about 500 Kj, and felt about right.

Here is the analysis of the ride. I’ll link my files for you HERE:

Thanks for reading and watching, and ENJOY THE RIDE!
