FTP Testing · San Diego

Find Your Threshold

Functional Threshold Power (FTP) is the benchmark your training is built on. Knowing it lets you set accurate training zones, tailor your workouts and track your progress with real numbers.

Testing is for every level of cyclist — from competitive racers to recreational riders.
