To those wot use TrainingPeaks:
If I want to be fully fresh for a week of very hard riding (many consecutive days of climbing in the Alps) at the end of August, whereabouts should I plan to have my TSB so that I'm fresh but not losing fitness? I'm faffing about planning workouts on TP for my taper and am trying to get the values on my PMC graph looking good for the start of the week away.
It seems that the boffs recommend a slightly positive TSB, and I appreciate that it's different for everyone, but interested to hear what may have worked for others.
One thing is that the article below seems to be suggesting a slightly positive TSB for one off events, whereas I'll be riding for 5-6 days back to back.
