Using Xert to Show an MD Why You Think There’s Something WRONG With Your Heart.

Xert Metrics Can Show You When Things May Be Wrong Beyond Means Which You Can Control.

Today’s Xert Daily Ditty is really an interview where one of my long-time clients, who is also a teammate and friend, explains how he knew something was wrong when he saw his Xert XPMC metrics dropping. He tried everything. Intervals, sleep, switching days for lifting weights, all of it. But when he took his Xert charts to his doctor, they were alarmed enough to realize that this needed attention. Well, Bingo, Bango, Bongo, he and his doctor were able to perform MICROSURGERY to fix his problem, BEFORE he had another heart attack!

Xert Breakthrough Programming

Xert Breakthrough Programming – Building a workout to achieve a breakthrough!

 

Today I’m building a workout, first through Excel, then through the Xert Workout Builder, to create 5 by 1-minute intervals, to help me visualize the average power necessary to achieve a breakthrough. I’m trying to program surpassing 356 watts over 5 minutes.

Here’s the link:

Don’t forget to register for the Webinar this next weekend, which will happen RIGHT AFTER my effort on the 30th of January!

Xert 5MMP

Xert 5MMP – Can I REALLY Achieve A Breakthrough?

I’m just nine days out from my Peak date per Xert. My Xert 5MMP is reading “355”, and it floats between 355 and 357. I rode some 5 minute intervals yesterday and barely broke 302! The Vo2 data is showing that 355 will be a true challenge.

I believe my Xert 5MMP is Achievable, but not as a straight, horizontal average. I’m going to attempt it with my own strategy, which involves “Bank it”, then “Spend it”.

Watch the video and let me know what you think.

Xert Daily Ditty – Let’s GLANCE at the “Rankings”

Xert Rankings Give You An Idea of Where You Stand Amongst Your Peers

 

After a great weekend of cycling outdoors, I ended up with an unexpected guest (and friends), which led me to a lot of stress and no sleep.

SO, I am sliding the Freshness Feedback bar to the left, WAYYY Left, and I’m looking at different parameters today; namely, “Rankings”.

Don’t forget to hit “Subscribe” on the YouTube Channel, and maybe subscribe to THIS blog, and as always….

Xert Goals – Changing Parameters to Keep FOCUS.

Xert Goals Can be manipulated to help cyclists stay in line with their Weekly Focus. It helps to get Weekly FOCUS in line with the SUGGESTED Weekly Focus. This also helps the Workout Ratio.

Thanks and Enjoy The Ride!
