That makes sense and I would imagine most users of this App would be feeding in a wide range of efforts as a matter of course. If I fed in a few weeks of my rides and workouts they would cover my full working range of HR and Power. I might check it out for interest.
The App I use for training (PILLAR) doesn’t provide an estimate for VO2 max. It focuses more on W/kg at the various key points.
