LIMITATIONS OF GLOBAL POSITIONING SYSTEMS ON THE TRAINING AND TESTING EFFECTS OF CYCLING
This figure depicts a example of power (yellow line) plotted against the terrain traveled (orange shaded area) during the training ride using a web-based analysis program. Additionally, the program shows the route plotted with the GPS coordinates using Training Peaks analysis. Figure 2. Sample Cycling Workout
This figure shows a cycling workout with power (yellow line) plotted against elevation change (orange line) based off GPS coordinates collected during the ride. The program used for the analysis was a desktop version of the Training Peaks analysis but this version did not have access to the Internet.
