This means that it is a useful tool for tracking your progress as you can repeat a workout exactly and see how you compare to previous workouts.<\/p>\n<p>One test for such comparisons is the PWC test which compares power output to heart rate. There are various ways of doing this, some more complicated than others. The idea is to find your power output at 170bpm.<\/p>\n<h2>Performing the Test<\/h2>\n<p>Performing the tests are easy. After a warm up you simply need to do two consecutive 6 minute workouts in which the workloads are selected to produce a steady heart rate between 120 and 140 bpm on the first session and 150 and 170 bpm on the second session.<\/p>\n<p>This obviously takes a bit of guesswork to start with in order to get the workloads right, but the idea is to achieve a steady heart rate within those ranges by the end of each ride.<\/p>\n<p>For each session, the Heart Rate (bpm) and Power Output (watts) are recorded.<\/p>\n<h2>Calculating your Results<\/h2>\n<p>You can either plot your results on a graph with power output on one axis and heart rate on the other. Join the two points with a straight line and extend the line out to 170bpm to find your Power output at 170bpm, or use the following equation:<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/12\/equation.gif\" alt=\"\" title=\"PWV equation\" width=\"500\" height=\"57\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-3418\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/12\/equation.gif 500w, https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/12\/equation-120x13.gif 120w, https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/12\/equation-400x45.gif 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><br \/>\nWhere:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li> P1 = Power (watts) for session 1<\/li>\n<li> P2 = Power (watts) for session 2<\/li>\n<li> HR1 = Heart rate for session 1<\/li>\n<li> HR2 = Heart rate for session 2<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Don&#8217;t worry about doing it yourself though, use the form below to calculate your PWC results:<\/p>\n<form name=\"pcw170\" id=\"pcw170\" style=\"border: 1px solid #bbb; padding: 10px; margin-bottom:15px;\">\n        <script language=\"JavaScript\" src=\"https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/js\/pcw170.js\" type=\"text\/javascript\"><\/script><\/p>\n<h3>PWC170 Test Calculator<\/h3>\n<p>For each session enter your heart rate (bpm) and power output (Watts) and then click the &#8216;Calculate&#8217; button.<\/p>\n<table border=\"0\" cellpadding=\"4\" cellspacing=\"4\" align=\"center\" width=\"400\">\n<tr>\n<th colspan=\"4\">1st session<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td align=\"right\">Heart Rate:<\/td>\n<td><input name=\"hr1\" type=\"text\" size=\"4\" onfocus=\"valclear()\" \/><br \/>\n            bpm<\/td>\n<td align=\"right\">Power:<\/td>\n<td><input name=\"p1\" type=\"text\" size=\"4\" onfocus=\"valclear()\" \/><br \/>\n            watts<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<th colspan=\"4\">2nd session<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td align=\"right\">Heart Rate:<\/td>\n<td><input name=\"hr2\" type=\"text\" size=\"4\" onfocus=\"valclear()\" \/><br \/>\n            bpm<\/td>\n<td align=\"right\">Power:<\/td>\n<td><input name=\"p2\" type=\"text\" size=\"4\" onfocus=\"valclear()\" \/><br \/>\n            watts<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n<table width=\"400\" align=\"center\" cellpadding=\"4\" cellspacing=\"4\">\n<tr>\n<td width=\"100\" align=\"center\" colspan=\"2\"><input type=\"button\" name=\"Button1\" value=\"Calculate\" onclick=\"pcw170calculate()\" \/><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"214\" align=\"right\">Power at 170bpm<\/td>\n<td width=\"278\"><input name=\"tp\" type=\"text\" size=\"4\" onfocus=\"valclear()\" \/><br \/>\n              watts<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table><\/form>\n<p>Repeating this test regularly allows you to track the progress of your power output.<\/p>\n<h2>My PWC170 Results<\/h2>\n<p>I tried the test today and my results were as follows.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Heart Rate 1: 122 bpm<\/li>\n<p>Power 1: 180 Watts<\/p>\n<li>Heart Rate 2: 152 bpm<\/li>\n<li>Power 2: 260 Watts<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>This gives me a <strong>PWC170 result of 308 Watts<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>The advantages of this test are that it is quick and easy to perform.
