NJINGA TESTING OPTIONS

MOT RIDER ASSESSMENT

Our comprehensive MOT is the complete once over that every rider should do. We review your pedal technique, range of motion and mobility, cycling fitness, balance/stability, nutrition and core strength to help identify your key areas of weakness, what’s holding you back and give you greater clarity on what you need to work on to see the biggest gains in your cycling. 

Suitable for all stages.

FTP TESTING

A FTP or Functional Threshold Power test is a cycling performance measure to calculate your accurate power and heart rate training zones by riding as hard as you can over a 20 minute period. Testing FTP performance will give you the chance to improve your pacing strategy, track your training progress and see results faster. We highly recommend it.


Suitable for stages 2, 3, and 4.

MAX RAMP TEST

It's an incremental power test to exhaustion where the target wattage increases by a set amount every minute until you can go no more. The results from the test will give you your maximal minute power (MMP), an estimated VO2max and your max heart rate (MHR).



Suitable for stages 3 and 4.

RIDER TESTIMONIALS

"I signed up for the Rider MOT assessment to understand my base line as a cyclist and as an opportunity for some one to assess how I currently cycle. As expected it highlighted weaknesses I was unaware of and confirmed others.   Having understood more about my cycling now it has made me want to improve my technique by actively doing something about it rather than just focusing on getting stronger."
- Esra Parr
"My fitness has improved dramatically and in a measurable way thanks to the FTP testing. The Wattbike is a fantastic fitness machine not only in terms of comfort but also the diagnostics so well worth learning how to use it properly."






- Ivan Schofield
"I enjoyed the Maximal Ramp Test challenge. I really liked the continual build up as I went along and focusing on a number in short stints. As ever with the coaches at Njinga, the motivation provided was fantastic, helping me to keep pushing to my absolute limit. I can’t wait to try the other tests to understanding my sprinting and climbing capabilities!!"
