In the 7th month, tests for maximal oxygen consumption (VO2Max) and PE were repeated on both groups of subjects. RESULTS: Absolute value of VO2Max increased significantly (P < 0.05) in the yoga group after 6 months of training. The PE score after maximal exercise decreased​

significantly (P < 0.001) in the yoga group after 6 months but the PT group showed no change. INTERPRETATION & CONCLUSION: The practice of Hatha yogic exercises
​

along with games helps to improve aerobic capacity like the practice of conventional exercises (PT) along with games. The yoga group performed better than the PT group in
​

terms of lower PE after exhaustive exercise.

Hello again ​

referring to A.Coggan’s Power Based Training Levels table, at the several times that I trained based on this approach, I calculated the zone’s percentage while the basis was my 30min best power (353W); today I noticed that Andy actually refers to a 60min avg power which is obviously lower probably around 300 or even less (have not tried);​

based on 353w, 106-120% = 372-424W – so I was trying to hold 420 for a few minutes (my best recorded on polar WIND in this wattage range is 400W/10 min.)​

if I do 120% of 300W that would be 360 which I can hold for a few minutes without calling it a hard interval….​

So-my question is, should I keep taking the 353W as a basis ?​

BTW, last april-may, I was LT tested for the first and only time – a conconi protocol on a Technogym – my LT was at 230W (!) at 152 HR/min.​

For the comparison, the avg of the 30min 353W is 176HR/min (finish at 184 of 191 max )​

That probably means that I actually ‘tolerate’ acids and do the 353 way beyond LT…​

Not sure what are the ‘productive’ ranges of wattage for me….​

Thanks!!!​

not suggesting a "one percentage fits all approach" but I'd be shocked if your 30MP was 353W and your 60MP only 300W. I'd asstimate something in the 3-5% range - suggesting an FTP around 335-345W.

how do your Coggan training levels look at that FTP?

Hi rmur - I am not sure I und'd what you are saying -(what's 30MP and 60MP ?)
Also I'd be glad to reply to your last line - pls reword it.. thanks

MP is maximal power for that duration maybe properly termed MMP (mean maximal power).

last sentence: plug say 340W into the AC training levels calculator and evaluate what spits out.

Okay - 60MP I have not actually treid.. that was just an estimation and I may be wrong.

Got your last line too - Thanks.
