Yeah I reckon it's about even more volume for polarised. My understanding is that you want to be doing 80% Z2 and 20% intense stuff, but that split is number of sessions rather than time in zones.
When I could follow the plan closely I was doing 2x hard interval sessions a week and 2x zone 2 rides, which doesn't really add up.
I'm sure zwift would be fun, but I'm going to enjoy non competitive easy weekend rides with friends this autumn for a change. Might go running in the week too.

That’s interesting, I know there’s a lot of people that swear by polarised but do wonder if there’s tipping point of hours you have to do to make it work.
And clearly the TR approach has delivered results for you in the past, so makes sense to go back.
If you do fancy something a little different I reckon you’d absolutely smash the top end of Zwift racing but appreciate that’s not everyone’s cup of tea!
