What a Watt Actually Costs · 42 min
Why 290 watts at hour four costs so much more than the same 290 watts at hour one.
The science behind the ride.
This series draws on established exercise physiology and published research to connect the science with what we experience on the bike. I aim to distinguish what is well understood from what remains uncertain, and explain the mechanisms without promising shortcuts or prescribing a one-size-fits-all training plan.
Each released episode lists the papers it draws on: open it and look for “Scientific sources”.
