Just wondering with the collective PM knowledge here what would you guys think of this PMC? Considering that I am not training or peaking for anything specific just like to keep my fitness up and have a comfortable 94.7 road and MTB .....

 

Hey Ben, considering you kind of want to maintain its hard to build a goal into a TSS based system, but brilliant work on building up from Jul onwards!  If you keep going like that keeping your TSB in moderate sub-zero levels with periods of recovery, you are doing your fitness a great deal of good.

 

Its never a short term plan, fitness/power is built over time, if you keep focus you'll start picking the fruits.  Sadly, at a point gains become marginal and you have to ask how much time are you willing to invest to break through....

Thanks Iwan! Been trying to keep to a 3 weeks 'hard' then 1 week 'easy' sort of plan, wouldn't mind to get back to where I was in January though :blush:

 

Am focusing lots more on reducing BF (an ugly thing ;) ) in the coming weeks though as I know that will have a big influence on how 'comfortable' 94.7 will or won't be :cursing:

 

Ag once the gains become marginal I'll be happy to just plod along, long over trying to whip JC and Rouxtjie on the SSR ..... :devil:

Ben with the amount you've lost I don't know where you want to shed more KGs...but in any case, have you tried combining the cycling with weights? I do weights 3-4x a week and it does wonders in keeping the BF in check.

That's a good reason

Uninterrupted Zzz is key, man

 

With my 22 month old laaitie, training has been just okay, and great on very rare occasions.
