Just don't be a dick and learn from mistakes past ;)
Why not aim for 3 points CTL increase then, and make your training sessions good quality, rather than junk. Composition of CTL counts for more than raw ctl numbers. (in a generalisation) Plan that out in TP with TSS for each quality session and stick to TSS numbers. But listen to your body, your body > TSS numbers.
60 is ok CTL.
I hear you, but based on my history I tend to train harder than I should when not at full strength. I am an idiot basically. I don't like going easy and struggle to keep effort in check, then end up hurting myself.
I suppose I was thinking if I had a TSS to aim at each week, perhaps increasing by 5% (?) each time, I'd be able to plan a schedule that won't push the body beyond what it's capable of too soon.
