DEFINITION TERMS & ABBREVIATIONS Power-orientated (WattRate®) or heart rate oriented training guidance based COACH BY COLOR (CBC) ® on individual user settings by training zones depicted in color. Unit of power which is calculated based on the time during which the work is done. The WATT calculation is carried out using the formula: Watts = force x speed.
COACH BY COLOR ® TRAINING ZONES COACH BY COLOR® TRAINING CONCEPT The 5 color zones used by ICG (white, blue, green, yellow, red) can be used based on the power (watts) of every user of the bike. The training zones are based on the current power in relation to the individual FTP (Functional Threshold Power®) value.
MEDICAL DISCLAIMER CAUTION The division of the training zones for power or heart rate oriented training is based on an average person’s performance.
