Power Zones

I have a good handle on HR zones, but haven't seen many versions of power training zones. Have any to share? (I've seen Coggins/Howe).

Whoops. Forgot to mention that I've seen Ric's, too.

Monnier's article on CP is excellent:

Outside of Monnier, Howe, Coggan and Stern, I'm not sure there's anything else out there that would provide you with any additional info re. power zones.

Friel has an article on the Cycle-Ops site but he uses the CP paradigm (sort of) and it's pretty much already covered in Monnier's article.

Are the ones you've mentioned so far inadequate?

British Cycling have a similar set of zones much like Andy Coggans. They also use a training stress score but its based on much smaller numbers.
Like the previuos poster suggests, are they not useful enough?

Absolutely not -- they seem excellent. I'm just making sure I collect enough data before deciding which to employ.
