FTP, realistic (left axis)cautious – ambitiousW/kg (right axis)actual test results

A projection, not a promise. It assumes the plan gets ridden, sleep recovers after each run of nights, and weight comes down at the rate above. Each ramp test puts a real dot on the chart — after a few of them it will be obvious which line is the honest one. Note that W/kg climbs faster than raw watts: most of that comes off the scale, not out of the legs.
