I tend to agree that it does matter. I just wonder about sometimes what work contributes to the CTL as it relates to the correlations in the chart.

There's a lot of folks that might sway the correlation weaker due to tons and tons of low intensity cafe rides without as much hard work that wind up with lower ftp's.

Or the opposite, folks on lower CTL's whose loads constantly have a higher IF.
