Van der Poel’s best 20-minute effort for the day was 378w (5.17w/kg) with a max power of 1,400w during his final sprint.
Damn. I average around 110 watts over a 10 mile(roughly an hour) mountain bike ride, with being over 350w making up around 5% of that time. I can't even begin to imagine what it would be like to be able to put out that much power for that long. Incredible.

It's not that hard to generate an FTP of 300w if you're riding and training quite a bit. The problem is generating that much power while weighing as little as possible.
The pros do this by deliberately choosing to atrophy their upper body muscles which I was never into.
