CycleCoach MAP & Power Profile Calculator
Enter your latest MAP (from a ramp test) and key power values. The calculator estimates your CycleCoach training levels, checks how realistic your FTP is, provides a Compound Score, compares to historic British Cycling allometric benchmarks, estimates VO₂max, predicts TT and race powers, and classifies your power against the classic Coggan/TrainingPeaks power profile.
How to use this calculator
- Enter your MAP from a ramp test (Zwift, MyWhoosh, TrainerRoad, Rouvy, or a smart trainer).
- Add your best 5 s, 60 s, 5 min and FTP powers if you know them.
- Include your body mass to see W/kg, VO₂max and allometric benchmarks.
- (Optional) Add your height and choose an aero position to estimate a CdA-based performance score.
- Click "Calculate zones & power profile" to see your results.
All calculations run locally in your browser. Nothing is stored or sent anywhere unless you choose to email the report.
What to do with these numbers
This calculator gives you a solid picture of where you are right now. If you'd like more structure and support, here are the ways I can help:
- MAP: The Build : A custom-made four-week training block with a small amount of coach review, designed for riders who are happy executing a clear plan independently. (£25 per four-week block)
- Bronze Coaching : Coach-guided training with regular review and accountability, without the intensity or cost of full 1-to-1 coaching. (£99/month)
- Full 1-to-1 Coaching : Fully individualised programming, analysis, contact and bespoke periodisation tailored to your goals. Choose from Silver, Gold, Rainbow or Platinum according to the level of support you need. (From Silver at £150/month)

You now know your MAP, FTP and power profile. The next step is turning those numbers into training that fits your goals, available time and current fitness.
Most cyclists make one of these mistakes next:
- ✗ Choosing isolated hard sessions that do not build on each other
- ✗ Following a generic plan that ignores their power profile
- ✗ Training hard too often without enough progression or recovery
- ✗ Guessing what to do whenever work, fatigue or life disrupts the week
