My Legs Quit Before My Lungs: The Brutal Zwift Ramp Test

In today’s video, I’m taking the first big steps toward my Ironman goals for 2026. Before I can start the heavy training blocks on Zwift, I needed to get two things sorted: my riding position and my baseline fitness. First, I headed down to Bike Fit Labs in Worthing to see Simon. We spent four hours dialing in my Canyon Speedmax, looking at everything from hamstring flexibility and hip mobility to custom FootBalance insoles and cleat alignment. If you've never had a pro bike fit, it’s a fascinating process that balances aerodynamics with actual human comfort (a rare combo!). Then, it was time for the "pain cave." I tackled a Zwift FTP Ramp Test to establish my training zones. What is FTP? Functional Threshold Power (FTP) is the maximum average power you can sustain for roughly one hour. We use the ramp test to estimate this: FTP=Avg. Power of Final Minute×0.75 Stick around to the end to see where my limits are and how my legs held up compared to my heart rate.
