Watts is a unit of work (like "wattage") - not an acronym.

FTP is Functional Threshold Power (or "1 Hour power")

LT is Lactate Threshold

BPM is Beats per Min (HR, or Heart Rate)

KG is kilograms. 2.2 lbs = 1 kg

TAXC is... no idea. Either a type of trainer or those water bottle holders made of carbon.

HR is Heart Rate

TSS is Traning Stress Score

ATL is Hotlanta, I mean Acute Training Load

CTL is Chronic Training Load

Peaking? I'll let you figure that one out.

Keeping elbows sharp must mean to keep them bent - a common newb mistake is to keep them locked straight.

For all the TSS/ATL/CTL stuff see here.
