When analyzing the data though, many different workouts can yield approximately the same average power, despite major differences between workouts (e.g., a long steady effort vs. sprints or intervals).

When analyzing the data though, many different workouts can yield approximately the same average power, despite major differences between workouts (e.g., a long steady effort vs. sprints or intervals).
