How on earth is anybody getting through the Trainerroad mid volume plans, let alone high volume.
I’ve just done a kind of simulation out of interest and ended up at 352 TSS for the week, which is a few TSS lower than their rolling road race plan on average and I’m a shell. My legs don’t even ache, they just feel horribly backed up and lifeless.
It was made up of alternative hard and recovery rides similar to their plans and that’s on the back of a consistent training since Christmas. I’m not hugely fit at the moment but I’m used to biggish training volumes of 600 TSS a week from years gone by.
I’ve slept well and recovered well. No weird heart rate issues.
