4-5 sessions of 1-1.5h just below threshold sounds pretty grim, and will probably put you into a dark hole...
So to clarify. It’s outside - riding as close to target as the road/traffic/body allows. In practice it’s usually around an hour of sweetspot with around 40 mins of that consisting of steady 8-20 min efforts.

Riding intervals at sweetspot seems to provide enough training stress while not stressing your body too much. With regular small increases in watts throughout the winter?
