"TSS is an attempt to quantify - with a single number derived from power data - the global physiological strain resulting from the interaction of the intensity and duration of exercise. As such, it would be expected to be predictive of not only muscle glycogen utilization, but also other markers of overall physiological strain, e.g., liver glycogen utilization or total carbohydrate oxidation during exercise, or post-exercise urinary catecholamine and/or cortisol excretion. However, it was not designed to predict any of these things specifically, and with the exception of muscle glycogen utilization, these remain untested hypotheses." cyclingforums/t/488594/sequencing-workouts-intensity/165#post_4029059
