Train With RPE! Colby Pearce explains
Full Episode here: https://youtu.be/2Hj8DcLEc9g
The video explores the evolution of metrics in cycling, emphasizing the shift from relying solely on subjective measures like perceived exertion (RPE) to the introduction of objective metrics like power. It discusses how power transformed the sport by providing a standardized measure of performance. However, it warns against overreliance on data, highlighting the importance of maintaining a balance between objective metrics and subjective intuition. The speaker argues that while power has its place in training and racing, becoming fixated on specific numerical targets can lead to detrimental outcomes. Ultimately, the video advocates for a holistic approach that prioritizes understanding and respecting individual perceived exertion alongside quantitative data.
