   23 - Your FTP Number Is Lying to You

   That 95% multiplier your FTP test spits out? It was never actually tested against real 60-minute performance — and recent research shows it's off for most riders. This episode breaks down where the formula came from, why it's reliable but not necessarily accurate, and what to track instead of obsessing over one number. In this episode: The 95% FTP20 formula was never scientifically tested when proposed — it was a convenient shortcut to avoid a brutal 60-minute max effort test. Research shows most riders can only hold 95% of their 20-minute power for ~50 minutes, not 60 — and 90% is often a closer estimate of true 60-minute power. FTP20 is reliable (consistent, repeatable results) but not necessarily valid (accurate to real-world 60-min capability) — those are two different things. Practical fix: retest every 6-8 weeks under identical conditions and track the trend, not the exact number. Trust feel/heart rate over the formula when they conflict.

   22 - Cycling and Your Knees: The Truth Nobody Agrees On

   Some cyclists swear it saved their knees. Others swear it wrecked them. Both are right — and the difference comes down to four fixable things almost nobody checks. In this episode: 🔬 Why population studies and clinic data seem to contradict each other 📏 Saddle height — the single biggest predictor of knee pain, and how to check yours in 5 minutes 👟 Cleat position — the slow, silent torque that builds tendonitis over months 📈 Why ramping up mileage too fast is the most common trigger for new knee pain 🍑 The hip and glute connection — why "knee pain" often isn't a knee problem at all Whether you've been riding pain-free for years or you're dealing with nagging knee soreness right now, this episode breaks down what the research actually says — and what to check first.
