Worked example

Worked example

A 1000m time of 4:10 needs a 2:05 split, which is 179.2 watts held for the whole distance.

How it is worked out

The 500m split is the 1000m time scaled to 500m: split = time × 500 ÷ 1000. Watts come from that split: watts equal 2.80 divided by (split ÷ 500) cubed. The figures assume the same pace over the whole distance. They show what a time needs, not a pacing plan.
