Everything published about Paul Seixas's body, power and equipment, each figure with its source and date. We never measure anything ourselves, and we say which numbers are estimates.

Height and weight

FTP, VO2max and heart rate
Published figures only. A model of race climbs or a reading of training uploads is an estimate, not a lab test, and is labelled so.
| Metric | Value | Type | Based on | Source |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| FTP | 385 (+-5) W | Estimate | 2026 · model estimate, no published test / 407 W standardised to 70 kg / Watts2Win 412 W | Velo2max, 16 May 2026 |
| FTP | 415 W | Estimate | 2026 · watts2win model estimate, updated by the site over time (412 when first recorded, 415 on 28 Oct 2026) | Watts2Win performance profile |
| VO2max | 92.3 (+-2.3) ml/kg/min | Estimate | 2026 · model estimate / Velo2max: Seixas has published no power, VO2max or HR / no lab test found in press | Velo2max, 16 May 2026 |
Climbs and power
One row per effort. Where several sources give the same effort, a study comes first, then the rider's own file, then a named analyst, then the press. Analysts estimate power from time, length, gradient and an assumed weight: those are not power files.
