[The Problem With TrainerRoad Training Plans] submitted without comment, I just started watching lol

thats great - I know these aren’t your preferred plans but I think you’ll win a lot fo fans for offering them and it will be interesting to see the data on how people perform with them in future. Been a subscriber since early 2010 and its stuff like this that keeps me here and a continued fan of th…

[image] hdas: Good Stuff. The infamous YouTube review ended up being a strong catalyst for change. It sure was the YouTube video and not the year long discussion.(s) about the matter.

Consider that much of this discussion started way back in Sept/Oct 2018 , sparked by the Fast Talk podcast episodes with Dr. Seiler. I think the many POL threads that came from that timeframe, and related discussions outside it, are at least a part of this. The DJ video was just a more visible ver…

I’m really looking forward to the new podcast episode. In the mean time, I think I’ve found a new way to beat this dead horse! Something that bothered me, but I didn’t see mentioned (I might have missed it in the 2500+ comments) was that one of the snippets from the paper that was used in the video…

Yah that’s exactly what I don’t really get about this “debate”. It’s unlikely to be really big difference in either direction, so just do whatever suits your lifestyle at any given point in time :man_shrugging:t2:

For those that missed it elsewhere: [image] Polarized Training Deep Dive and TrainerRoad’s Training Plans – Ask a Cycling Coach 299 Ask a Cycling Coach Podcast Polarized Training is a hot topic of conversation and has been a central part of recent criticism toward TrainerR…

TrainerRoad have addressed this topic exactly as I hoped. Earlier in the thread I said they should either address the science or provide a polarized plan. In fact, they have done (or are doing) both. What’s more bizarre is the number of people on this thread who were arguing: there was no need fo…
