Can you do too much base training with 20h weeks? What about a lot of only zone 2 endurance riding? great question from the discord! Let's see what's best for Stijn, and hopefully you can apply this to your upcoming training! • +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ • Hi Brendan, I got some info from you in the past and that was super, But now I am in my 2 last weeks before my last peak and I want to start 16 weeks of base training from December. In the discord channel I also asked you about some 4 weeks of Z2 training. I have alot of time in December and I want to try this: • week1 15h • week2 15h • week3 8h • week4 20h • rest week • Is this a good idea this month? Because it is not a progressive based base building period...and Z2 only (longer rides 65%), shorter rides below LT1). • Do you have short advice? I don't want to screw up my base period. • greetings • stijn • ——————— • Brendan: • remind me, what's your current weekly volume like again? • this month is good because if you do a bit too much, there's plenty of time to recover from it. • tons of z2 would be great!! • ——————— • Stijn: • I have now a CTL around 85-90. Weekly between 11-15hrs. • My goal in 2023 is a very hard century (220k, 5500m+). • I want to increase my aerobic endurance. • Increase power at Z2 first with same HR (LT1). • Maybe train more in blocks of 2-3 weeks. Z2, fatmax, SS progression, Treshold, vo2 block. • But starting first with Z2 endurance high volume december...maybe one shorter vo2 2 times. • ——————————————————— • Brendan: • yeah if you're honestly doing 15h, hit the 20h week, it'll be good! just make sure you foam roll and stretch and sleep as much as you can. • honestly, scratch the sweet spot. It's not doing anything but making you tired. Tempo, okay a little. Threshold as over unders. VO2max....those will take you to the promised land! • Wrap up: • how much are you currently doing? Add a few hours to that. If you’re doing 10h, is 15 even worth it? Maybe, maybe not. • Look to build consistency versus just ONE BIG WEEK. people get sick. • Once you do this, can you add more hours to normal training? • Have fun and recover hard: • 1. eat right • 2. sleep right • 3. stretch and foam roll • ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ • Base Video: • Why Do We Need Cycling Endurance Trai... • Base Training: https://www.trainingpeaks.com/trainin... • ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ • Full Blog With Training Tips: www.evoq.bike/blog • Subscribe to Our Newsletter: http://eepurl.com/ggRc4n • Follow Along on Strava: / strava • EVOQ Training Packs: https://www.evoq.bike/training-packs • TrainingPeaks Store Programs: https://www.trainingpeaks.com/trainin... • Ketones, Delta G Tactical: https://www.deltagketones.com/product...
