BENEFITS OF USING RUNNING POWER
This is probably not the first time you hear about running with power. I assume you’ve heard about some of the advantages, like:
Power enables you to quantify exercise intensity and use it in training, racing and when creating a training plan.
Power is a better measure for intensity than speed, because speed depends on incline, wind, terrain etc.
Power is a better measure for intensity than heart rate, because your heart rate can differ per day. Heart rate data is not comparable with the heart rate of your friend and doesn’t respond quickly to changes in intensity.
