I started a whole thread on exactly this. Bottom line, AT led to pretty much a wasted summer of training for me. The plan was not intense enough at the start and it took to long to get up to the right level. > [@Losing faith with new TR plans](https://www.trainerroad.com/forum/t/losing-faith-with-new-tr-plans/59027): > > Hi all, long time TR mega-fan but… Just started (end of first week) the new version of SPBMV and was surprised at how little actual sustained work is in the program. Having just come off the back of the ‘old’ version of SSBMV and having reasonably comfortably completed workouts like Lemarck and Leconte plus the lengthy Over-Under workouts, SPBMV ‘new and improved’ seems an absolute walk in the park. Having reviewed the entire plan I am concerned about whether there are enough longer sessions in… I was training for a trip to the Alps which didn’t happen due to C-19 and I’m glad it didn’t because I felt under prepared. It will come right eventually, but you’ll have to wait a while for AT to get to know you, but in the meantime it’s not actually that great. --- _[View the full topic](https://www.trainerroad.com/forum/t/build-phase-now-too-easy/63642)._
