When to Let Go of FTP and CTL: Why Fitness Metrics Can Limit Your Performance
About this episode
This episode discusses the limitations of fitness metrics like FTP and CTL and emphasizes the importance of focusing on performance skills.
FTP and CTL are powerful tools for building fitness; but they are not performance. In this episode, we explore when athletes need to stop chasing bigger numbers and shift their focus toward what actually produces results: fitness, durability, repeatability, and performance skills. Learn why holding on to training-phase metrics for too long can limit your ability to perform when it matters most.
