TSS of 575 last week, IF of 0.68

 

First attempt to get my 'tapering' right for a race this year at Monster, so aiming for a max10% drop in CTL (56.6 > 50.9) and zero TSB about 7days before the race, up to 13 on race day.

 

Sounds about right? Thoughts?

Training Stress Score. Intensity Factor.

 

Elements used by power meter software to determine if you are "well rested" (Sat on the couch and ate chips) or "well trained" (Killed yourself riding thousands of kilos)

With a CTL lowish, I dont think it is necessary to taper to much.

 

It's not like you are overtrained at the moment.

 

What is your weekly increase in CTL?

CTL increases about 3 every week.

 

I've been running negative TSB number since beginning of the year and I'm curious to seeif I'll feel strong on race day if I go in with a marginally positive number.

If it is your A race for the year, then you should be +, if not, just rest and eat well the week before the race.

I can see that you have followed your program quite well, even though you were ill in Feb.

you don't need it....its not a must gen...all it is a formula(TSS..training stress score) to see what impact a single / block of workouts had on you fitness level(CTL...chronic training load) and fatigue levels(ATL...Acute Training Load).

 

I like data so I am like a kid in a candy shop when it comes to influence of workouts on me...am I getting fitter, how much did the workout benefit me, how much did it fatigue me, when will best day to put in a big workout for impact on race day and be well rested for it(TSB...training stress balance)....etc etc...

 

Google CTL and ATL...it will set you free, but if you not into numbers and data it won't mean anything...it will just be a bunch of numbers :thumbup:
