Computrainer Week 20 PIG Test

Time for the last PIG test to measure how much I improved over the last twenty-three weeks. Ok, I know PIG is twenty weeks but it took me twenty-three to complete it.

The goal was to go out easy and smooth, increasing the wattage every five minutes. The targets were to start at 240, increase each five by five and finish at 265. The first five went by at 251 so I tried to easy back a little, not explode and begin the increases at fifteen. The second five came in at 250 which was just about perfect. I went through fifteen at 252 which was still looking good. I tried to increase over the next five and actually slipped back to 251. Definitely not the direction to be going. Over the next five, I tried to lift the wattage and get back to where I wanted to be. I held the output even from twenty to twenty-five but that wasn't the goal.

Did the test come out the way I expected? Not by a long shot but what can you do?
