What benchmark does this effort suggest?
Compare recognised sustained-power protocols and understand how the estimate differs from a progressive ramp test.

Practical cycling tools
Turn a number into a useful decision.
Explore power, W/kg, FTP percentage, workout bias and estimated energy without opening a spreadsheet. Every result is placed back into the context of your own rider profile and training zones.
Tools with a reason
Useful before, during and after a ride.
These are not calculators for the sake of producing more data. Each one answers a practical training question.
What does this intensity mean for me?
Translate a percentage into personal watts, W/kg, training zone and perceived effort.
How does power relate to body weight?
Move between watts and W/kg while keeping FTP percentage and zone context visible.
What will a workout bias change?
Preview an intensity adjustment before training and see its revised power and W/kg target.
What might this zone cost energetically?
Explore an approximate energy range using the personalised power values for a selected zone.
How should I plan fuelling?
Estimate energy from average power and duration for a ride, race or indoor workout.
Estimate, then validate
FTP calculations with the protocol explained.
The estimator supports sustained testing while explaining the calculation behind each result. It also distinguishes those protocols from the app’s progressive ramp test, where the highest rolling 60-second power determines the estimate.
- 20-minute sustained effort
- Two 8-minute efforts
- Progressive ramp-test comparison
- Result shown in watts and W/kg
Plan the effort
Put duration and power into fuelling context.
The Effort Calories tool estimates the mechanical and metabolic energy associated with a planned ride. It is a practical planning aid—not a claim of laboratory precision—and keeps average power, time, W/kg and FTP intensity together.
Apply the result
Move directly from calculation to an appropriate workout.
Inside Edge Ride links numbers back to zones and training, so the result becomes an action rather than another isolated statistic.
