Zero FTP figure in Strava

1

Hi all. If I put zero as my FTP figure in Strava but set it to my proper setting in ICU will it use the ICU figure to work out all the metrics in ICU from ride data from Strava despite Strava FTP being set as zero. I ask as I’d like to set Strava FTP to zero to stop people having an idea of my FTP from working it out from ramp tests and things like that.

Thanks.

Intervals.icu doesn’t use the FTP from Strava except when you first signup. Not sure if Strava will let you enter a zero though!

Maybe put a 1 figure in them. Keep the club mates guessing :wink:

Anyone can guess your FTP from the test.

If it’s a ramp test from Zwift or TrainerRoad, FTP is 75% of best 1-minute power.
If it’s a 20-minute test, then FTP is 95% of the 20-minute interval…
And so on

Just keep those tests hidden

Yep, that’s the point of the query. Fairly easy to guess the ftp from the zones on a ride as well if PM connected hence wanting to drop the figure to near zero.
