I just did my final pre-fatigued FTP test, here’s what I wrote 12 weeks ago: '’Hello everyone, my name is Clément, I'm 28 and I've been cycling since 2012, although with a long injury. I started cycling with cross country in the mountains and since I've moved to a flatter city, I picked up road cycling in 2016. I did a lot of volume and was starting to show strong performances in races but I got injured... 🙃 After spending around 5-6 years doing rehab and still having pain in my knee, I'm finally seeing the end of the tunnel ! I seriously got back into cycling around two years ago. First year was to make sure I could cycle without pain. Second year was the one where I signed up to races and challenged myself: long distance triathlon (70.3), ultra distance cycling (1500km in 5 days), semi marathons and a marathon. Now this new year is the one where I'm (hopefully) getting back into proper race shape! My currents stats are ~300w ftp for 90kg at 1m90: so 3,3w/kg. Ultimately i want to break the 4w/kg barrier. For this challenge I hope to improve my FTP to 320w. Outside of the quantified changes, I mainly want to get some structure in my training and see what it can do. Also I aim for the 100% compliance 😃. Im a huge gear nerd so lets talk about anything 😁 Also I play table tennis around 2 times a week with tournaments in the weekend 🏓.’’ 📊 Results (60-min test)Test 1: 258 W (indoor)Test 2: 264 W (indoor)Test 3: DNF (indoor)Final: 276 W (outdoor) 📊 Net: +19 W (+6,2%) - goal crushed! 🟢 Consistency 62 workouts planned55 workouts completed 🟢 89% compliance - goal achieved! That was my first time getting coaching in any shape. It was really insightfull. Sometimes I saw what was planned and I genuinely did not think I would make it. The 4h of vo2 max & over unders was crazy :D. I was fairly limited by my knee, battling inflammation during the program. Still managed to achieve 90% of completion, there was 1 strength workout I skipped, everything else was recovery due to injury

Challengers, The 12 weeks are already over! Your goal was to train consistently towards your goal for 12 weeks straight. Both of you succeeded in that, congrats! @Tadej Murovec is the first challenger with a 🟢100% compliance. 64 workouts planned, 64 workouts completed as planned. Insane! @Clément Péau had some issues with injuries and combined on the bike training with playing table tennis and working at the same time. Mad respect for his work ethic and resilience. I'm thankful to have you guys on board this challenge. It inspires me to keep training as well 🔥. I'll share your final results in a future post. Morpheus members, From now on the challenge will be held in 4 week blocks, but these weekly check-ins will continue. More info will follow next week Monday.

Saw this video on instagram today. I have always noticed alot of the pros have this toe off kinda technique to their pedalling, but I never really thought about it critically. Curious to know what you guys have to say, as I'm really not experienced enough to comment. https://www.instagram.com/reel/DWhC8SUjzga/?igsh=MTFtdmcxMTk2ZnQxbw==

Started racing with a new team this season and here's the new Wip. The trike is a gtrikes whipstick with a Kevlar fairing, aircraft grade alloy frame and a 1x10 index drive train. She is also very fast. That's as much as I'm allowed to say bout the trike but she's a fast trike. Aero as heck. I highly recommend HPV racing if U get the chance.

Challengers, You've both worked your *ss off for the past 11 weeks. Kudos for the energy you've put in. I hope you can get fresh and fit for your final test this week, but remember that it's only a test. I'm certain these 12 weeks will help you both get closer to your goals this year, despite the test result. Morpheus members, Every week on Monday I share the compliance of all challenge participants to track if we are on target. Do the same for yourself to stay accountable to this community.
