Any question answered...

After reading Adam Topham's book, he basically says screw all that namby pamby recovery and zone 2 shit and just ride hard all the time as much as you can. What's the point in rolling around at 15 mph when you want to race at 25mph? Your body needs to get used to what you want to do, so if you're going to spend your time at 25 mph in the race, train like that.

He states often though that he has very little time to train and intervals on a turbo suit him. Also he was quite fit to start with. It's certainly not going to be the best method for everyone.
