w/kg lets riders compare FTP against body weight, explore benchmarks and training zones, and simulate a steady climb.

For
Cyclists comparing FTP and power-to-weight
Worth noticing
The climb estimate models gravity, rolling resistance, and aerodynamic drag, while stating that terrain, weather, drafting, and fatigue change real results.

Field notes

The what-if controls model changes in FTP at the rider’s current weight and can also calculate the power needed for a chosen W/kg target. The climb lab offers three preset grades—3%, 7%, and 12%—and lists its physical assumptions; it explicitly excludes real-world effects such as wind, terrain, drafting, and fatigue. Benchmark ranges are attributed to TrainerRoad, and the zone section cites Coggan’s power levels.
