Would it be better to shoot for a higher np during intervals? Translating to riding I'm assuming that would mean less fluctuation in power and more of a steady push.
My initial thought is that the short intervals would mess with np. In theory it is a better metric for more aerobic efforts, VO2 and above will likely just throw it off?
Out of curiousity - where were the intervals done? Inside or outside? They seem to have a nice consistency between them.
