  • I've got very slow, which I don't like.

    When I was a bit quicker I was doing something that looked roughly like this:
    Monday - rest
    Tuesday - 3 minute intervals
    Wednesday - 2 hours Z2
    Thursday - 2x20
    Friday - 2 hours z2
    Saturday - rest
    Sunday - 4 hours z2

    Does that look reasonable to go back to over winter to try to build a bit of fitness and pace for when the days get longer?

  • Ditch one of the Z2s for something a bit faster? 90 mins of Tempo or so? Not sure I'd bother with 3 minute intervals over winter but then I know bugger all about training.

  • What are you training for? That looks like a lot of work for not much gain, i.e. it's mainly steady state stuff that won't make you faster.

  • I broke a bunch of club TT records this year by doing a fair bit of LSD (the boring kind) like normal but being consistent with my turbo training. Consistent, meaning I didn't skip any sessions because life. I only do one a week but I make it count and like I said I hit it almost every week whereas the year before I managed to find a lot of excuses. If all that stuff you've got going on is on the turbo you'll be sick of it. If it's getting out and about doing different shit maybe it'll work for you.
