• To those that use TP / Golden Cheetah or other power data software, and make use of the Performance Manager, what kind of value is your TSB on a typical day / week?

    I track all my rides bar commutes as they're only a 12-14 mile round trip, and my TSB is typically around -40 to -60.

    As I've only been using a power meter for a few months I don't know if this is typical long term, but my training schedule is roughly what the same intensity as it would be all year. I ask as i felt particularly shitty over the weekend with achey legs and no motivation, and was wondering if that was my body just screaming out for a rest, and if so, how that relates to the TSB numbers.

    I know it's all relative (and I seem to be quite a slow recoverer), but would be interesting to see what numbers work for others.

  • I'd suggest having a google. Training peaks have some information on their blog. Or theres is a lot of literature out there already.

    But I'm not surprised you feel shitty.
