I finally got my butt back on the bike in December and have a goal to ride a GF in May with my wife. I started at 190lbs at the beginning of December with with an estimated FTP of 213. I bumped it for January to 225 and completed every workout I started. Having done ftp tests for many years I feel l…

What does your training look like as a result of TrainNow? I assume you just had it pick a workout for each day…did it give you any sort of structure? Or did it spit out a standard SS, Threshold, VO2 type deal three time a week? Good luck on the Ramp Test!

Just got done with the cool down. New FTP of 253w, which I am very happy about. I started more or less off the coach with some weight training and running in the fall of 21’ (3 times a week). No cycling for at least 6 months. I tried to stick with the recommended workouts each day. I started with …

I can vouch for the AT + New Plans in that light. I used to apply my alternate plans with more recovery weeks instead of the default 5+1 we see in the Sweet Spot Base plans.

Good work. I note you say you’ve completed SSB1 twice? Did you do SSB1->SSB2 or two lots of SSB1 in a row before SSB2?

No, separated point in training plans.

This is my first recommended workout at the new level (based on the time I chose). At first, I wasn’t sure I would be able to complete it. I stepped off the nutrition wagon Friday night-Sunday but was really happy to nail it. I do enjoy these types of workouts though Like most TR workouts, the RPE…
