Power numbers

Ok what is wrong or is it just right?
I’ve a Quarq PM on my mtb. Paired with a wahoo bolt. I did 2 races with it.
1 i had 300w avg and 299NP for 1hour14min

2 330w avg and 325NP for 1hour12min

BUT on the power curve on the wahoo app i only did 283w for 60min and 280w for 60min also strava says i did a avg power 283w for an hour and 280w

Why is my avg and np higher than my 60min power in the powercurve (wahoo same app as my avg and NP) and strava


Most likely your Wahoo Bolt it’s set to not include 0w periods when calculating average power so it’s giving you a higher avg than it should (it’s pretty rare to have NP<AP). If you set your computer to include 0w periods in its calculations everything should line up properly.

So the power curve is just Watts without 0 (coasting)
