Coros clearly states that effort pace is different from GAP. And I know perfectly well what GAP is. Effort pace may be close to Strava GAP but it’s not the same. I can see that in Intervals, because Intervals uses the Strava model for GAP.
I mentioned this in a former post where I included some sources. And I also mentioned that not knowing what it exactly is, is a red flag for me. That’s why I’m not using it.
But GOVVS/NGP came up in this thread and those are entirely new to me. So I just wanted to see if maybe these metrics are related. I’m always curious to see if something is valid/usable when alternatives pop up.
