How does one measure anaerobic work in kJ? On a one hour ride yesterday, I did a number of 1-3 minute hard efforts and wound up with 15% of ride time in power zones 5 and 6, most of it in 6. Of course some of that was aerobic work, but on so many short efforts, how much? Not that it matters, of course you're right in the context of this thread, I'm just interested in the technical details. Amusingly in this context, TrainingPeaks said 500 kJ and 400 Cal. (I set a Strava PR on a segment I've been riding for 20 years. Something's working.)
