But if I burn some matches and go near/above my FTP, even if just for say 20-30 seconds, I find it MUCH harder to drop back and maintain 140W like before the match was burnt. I feel like my cruise power goes from 140ish down to say 120ish.
Is that normal?
Had you eaten? It’s not something I normally experience with 20-30 seconds of effort
