"My target developed during the summer of 2021 to reach 33h of cycling weekly. I would aim to do three 7h bike rides and two 6h rides. If I would’ve been able to run, which I wasn’t due
to injury, I would have lowered the hours a little and settled for 25h weekly (or approx. 30h if I would’ve combined running and cycling)."fuck that.
@Norfolkbound - seems like a possible training plan following your 365 ride?

You missed the, "at 250W" context.

I mean the 5-2 sounds lovely and my friends and family would love that. It was a decent read thanks for sharing, i like his idea with the aerobic training block and setting challenges. He mentioned a 600km ride, I've been thinking about a 500km ride for a while now...
There's obviously limitations with the comparison to a professional athlete. Time being the biggest one, the max i could ride around a working day is 4 hours. With that comes a lot of control with the normal life, for me that's someone else at home who takes full responsibility of my lovely pets.
“With great aerobic power comes a great anaerobic responsibility”
He's right. I've really felt the benefit of a year of aerobic riding and doing some recent anaerobic work (probably 2 workouts as I'm now very lazy) has felt very comfortable.

I just glossed this, not having read it before. But it seems the key is:be born with amazing genetics, train like a fucking animal, passion.
