This is the first time I've done a TrainerRoad plan, despite having used it on & off for about 6-7 years. I've always preferred choosing workouts as I go, but this time just wanted something to fill the gap until the beginning of March, where I'll hopefully head outside and do more event specific stuff.
Not having to think about what workout I should do has already removed some of the mental strain, so that's good.

Depends how high you get your FTP set after the ramp. I reckon most people make big jumps on their ramps once they're more familiar with the test, so the FTP makes reasonable jumps too. I'd have to login to see that plan but to be honest I quite like the TR workouts whereas coachypoos just loves setting 2x20s for me, which take more mental effort to hold than say over/unders or other variations. I mean, even if the wattage is the basically the same, just knowing there's a change, like any change, in 2min makes the workout chunked and psychologically easier for me. Maybe other people find that, maybe not?
