I like this passage from Flamme Rouge
The Message
Power measurement is the future. But it's not a replacement for heart rate monitoring. Using the two to complement each other gives exponential factors of benefit. What I mean to clumsily say is; "Even though a Heart Rate Monitor and a Power Meter represents 50 % each of the overall measuring equation, when you combine the information of the two you get more than twice the benefit".
Unfortunately not everyone understands how to get the best from their heart rate monitor. I can see that from the amount of people I test that are "unsure" of their maximum heart rate. They all have a heart monitor but have no idea of their lactate training zone, VO2max training zones or even the normal WCPP training zones.
So just fitting a power meter will not make you a faster rider. Fitting a power meter will give you the extra dimension to your training that will help you realize your potential. And that's what this site is all about. helping others realize their potential.
Before you splash out on a new set of wheels ask yourself this question; "Will they make me a better rider?" The answer is definitely no. Now if you were to ask the same question about a power meter, the answer would definitely be yes, if you used it correctly.
