FTP Ratings
These tables include classifications for functional threshold power (FTP) estimates by gender.
Males Watts per Kilogram (W/kg)
Superior 5.05 and greater
Excellent From 3.93 to 5.04
Good From 2.79 to 3.92
Fair From 2.23 to 2.78
Untrained Less than 2.23
Females Watts per Kilogram (W/kg)
Superior 4.30 and greater
Excellent From 3.33 to 4.29
Good From 2.36 to 3.32
Fair From 1.90 to 2.35
Untrained Less than 1.90
FTP ratings are based on research by Hunter Allen and Andrew Coggan, PhD, Training and Racing with a Power
Meter (Boulder, CO: VeloPress, 2010).
Heart Rate Zone Calculations
Zone
% of Maximum Heart
Rate
Perceived Exertion Benefits
1 50–60% Relaxed, easy pace, rhythmic breathing
Beginning-level aerobic training,
reduces stress
2 60–70%
Comfortable pace, slightly deeper
breathing, conversation possible
Basic cardiovascular training, good
recovery pace
3 70–80%
Moderate pace, more difficult to hold
conversation
Improved aerobic capacity, optimal
cardiovascular training
4 80–90%
Fast pace and a bit uncomfortable,
breathing forceful
Improved anaerobic capacity and
threshold, improved speed
5 90–100%
Sprinting pace, unsustainable for long
period of time, labored breathing
Anaerobic and muscular endurance,
increased power
