Yes very gritty, fantastic effort and result! My wife if she even attempted would probably give up before she even got to within 30 of her max HR. No willingness to be uncomfortable.
What a beast!! Way to go Team Maloney:) This has inspired me to train more and test! Thanks guys. Looking forward to the next video. BTW, nice to see the sealant do its job. Rather have to clean up the bike later than trash the FTP test! #DeeSil #TeamTrek
Watching other people suffer on the bike is just nail biting lol lol lol..... when you know her pain and that full numb body is horrific, but so awesome when its over. GREAT JOB!!!!!!
Fantastic effort Dierdre! thanks for showing this - as a cyclist I feel the pain when I see someone doing this!LOL I could tell you really emptied the tank. You're so strong!!! It sure was motivating and now I want to do an FTP test - I'm a 58 woman now so I'll be happy if I can get to 200 FTP but I'm okay with that. Cycling is just so much fun and it's good to challenge yourself to improve. Would really like to see your training and nutrition as well. Thanks 🤗🥰💪
Wow! Your wife would actually beat me in a race. I am 65 and probably couldn't even do an FTP test now. I used to race competitively too. Just proves with age you are going to slow down. Nice job Dierdre.
Yes!!! Another video!!!! Keep up the good work! Question, What are her training load and how many hours a week did she train? My question will be answered in the future video. 😂 I love all the videos. So proud of you all!!!
Very strong, Deidre! 💪💪. What did your pre-test effort consist of … surely you didn’t hop out of the car, shoot the pre-test video, then go right into the effort?
Indoors my best 20 min power is 3.85 watts/kilo, this effort was 4.25. Now I haven’t done a 20 min power on the trainer in recent years. This data is from a race so I could probably hit a bit higher, I’m guessing 4 watt/kilo. Definitely harder to nail on the trainer. Thanks for watching!
Bamb! Way to go Deidre! 🤜🇨🇦 A vid on general stretching for cyclist would be nice. That and one on how to warm up and cool down afrer a ride. Cheers Cheers
It's emotional watching someone give it their all. Thank you for sharing. Fantastic work Deirdre!

Very few people, especially women, aren't willing to make themselves suffer that much. I'm impressed.
thanks
I’m a sucker for it! 😩🤣

thank you!! appreciate the support
Good job! Getting the saddle bag off the bike, and the bidon of the back pocket will help a lot..also more efficient cadance is needed! Well done guys
thank you
Great! Makes me want to go to my test hill right now 😅
Lol nice!!
Deidre a massive step change from the last ftp I’m interested what cycling sessions promoted the improvement
Great stuff

Yes!!! Another video!!!! Keep up the good work!
Question, What are her training load and how many hours a week did she train? My question will be answered in the future video. 😂
I love all the videos.
So proud of you all!!!
Hey! I probably train on average 13 hours per week! Look out for our video on my training up tomorrow the test. Thanks for tuning in!
Thanks man. Stay tuned, we will do a video answering these questions
...I was yelling at the screen again !!! Yes.
Lol thanks!!
Well done 👍
thank you!!
Very strong, Deidre! 💪💪. What did your pre-test effort consist of … surely you didn’t hop out of the car, shoot the pre-test video, then go right into the effort?
Yes she did a warm up, about 30 minutes, in that 30 min she did 10 min building from 100 watts to 300
awesome wattage! your wife's power to weight ratio must be crazy high
Sure is!
Nice job Dierdre! Do you have a comparison to an FTP estimate from indoor training? I'm curious how outdoor compares to indoor
Indoors my best 20 min power is 3.85 watts/kilo, this effort was 4.25.
Now I haven’t done a 20 min power on the trainer in recent years. This data is from a race so I could probably hit a bit higher, I’m guessing 4 watt/kilo.
Definitely harder to nail on the trainer.
Thanks for watching!
You can lose 20 to 30 watts easily inside
I think an interesting video would be to do a 20 min outdoor test and then trainerroad ramp test shortly after to compare the numbers.
👏👏👏👏👏🎉🎉🎉👍👍👍👍🇦🇹✌️
thank you
Your wife is a stronger rider than me, sigh.
Lol keep it up and happy riding
Bamb! Way to go Deidre! 🤜🇨🇦
A vid on general stretching for cyclist would be nice. That and one on how to warm up and cool down afrer a ride.
