Ouch! Sorry to hear about the crash.
If you’re not supposed to push yourself, then you’ll be looking at doing longer z2 sessions to keep weight off. These will either be fine or soul destroying, depending on your boredom threshold.
Basically work on your base.
In terms of a plan/progression, just increase volume as you start to heal and feel able.Do you have power to work with and know your training zones? Or the HR equivalent?

After some indoor training advice. Managed to crash into a tree on the mtb, fracturing my humerus (upper arm) in 3 places, chipping it, and potentially cracking the shoulder cup as well.
I've been told to ride an indoor trainer but to expect to be off the bike for 3 months at least.
I've never used an indoor trainer but have borrowed one from a mate, I can't push myself too hard whilst recovering but any suggestions on a plan to follow? Want to keep the weight off whilst I get better mainly, and to try and keep some of the fitness up I gained over summer.
