Xert Daily Ditty – Well, My 5MMP Test Has Come and Gone.
Did I Hit My Goal? Let’s make February a Month for Breakthroughs! Thanks for watching, and Enjoy the Ride!
January 30th, 2021 Webinar – Xert Gave me a 9 Week Plan for a 5MMP Breakthrough.
Did I Achieve my Goal?
The Xert Adaptive Training Advisor is an uncanny Artificial Intelligence program that provides suggested workouts and weekly FOCUS recommendations.
I worked for 9 weeks of Progression, following the Xert Adaptive Training Advisor, to see if I could achieve a 5MMP Fitness Breakthrough.
Let’s see how it went!
Using Xert to Show an MD Why You Think There’s Something WRONG With Your Heart.
Xert Metrics Can Show You When Things May Be Wrong Beyond Means Which You Can Control. Today’s Xert Daily Ditty is really an interview where one of my long-time clients, who is also a teammate and friend, explains how he knew something was wrong when he saw his Xert XPMC metrics dropping. He tried everything. […]
Billat 30-30’s with Xert, Vo2Master, and PerfPro
Billat 30-30’s Are a Great Way to Improve Your Ability to Suffer Under Load! Xert has zones that flex with time spent above Threshold.

Xert Time-to-Exhaustion Field
The Xert Time-to-Exhaustion Field is a VERY Powerful Tool for Managing Power. The Xert Time-to-Exhaustion Field, which I have written about before, is a powerful tool for cyclists who use power.

Xert Breakthrough Programming
Xert Breakthrough Programming – Building a workout to achieve a breakthrough! Today I’m building a workout, first through Excel, then through the Xert Workout Builder, to create 5 by 1-minute intervals, to help me visualize the average power necessary to achieve a breakthrough. I’m trying to program surpassing 356 watts over 5 minutes. Here’s […]
Xert 5MMP
Xert 5MMP – Can I REALLY Achieve A Breakthrough? I’m just nine days out from my Peak date per Xert. My Xert 5MMP is reading “355”, and it floats between 355 and 357. I rode some 5 minute intervals yesterday and barely broke 302! The Vo2 data is showing that 355 will be a true […]
OverReaching
OverReaching With Xert I’m just 10 days out from my “Peak” with the Xert Adaptive Training Advisor and Xert Goals, so it’s important that I push through this period, and OverReach. An OverReach is about increasing both training volume and intensity, and FOCUSING on the intervals necessary to improve, in this case, my 5MMP power […]
Xert Daily Ditty – Let’s GLANCE at the “Rankings”
Xert Rankings Give You An Idea of Where You Stand Amongst Your Peers After a great weekend of cycling outdoors, I ended up with an unexpected guest (and friends), which led me to a lot of stress and no sleep. SO, I am sliding the Freshness Feedback bar to the left, WAYYY Left, and […]
Xert GOALS – Alter the parameters.
Xert Goals Today’s Xert Daily Ditty is covering recent ground; I have to reconcile what the Adaptive Training Advisor is telling me, vs what I am seeing in the Progression and Fitness Signature. I also need to alter the Parameters in the “Goals” Section, to better fit my perspective of what I’m seeing and feeling […]
