How would you train with even more time than the "High Volume" plans?

I suffer from climate envy as well…I have been on the turbo for the last 2 weeks due to 2 named storms sweeping the UK on consecutive weekends causing chaos…more wind/rain due later this week ….must be somewhere I could live which is scenic/sunny and about 18-20C all year around

I live in the Scottish Borders and feel the same way

Ha! I live in the south east of the US and even here I tend to live on the trainer this time of year!

I live in the south too. yesterday was the first ride outside since mid October. Picked up a KOM that was standing for last 4 years. I was actually 4% below my ftp from the trainer, while riding outside. (Same power source) .

I just don’t enjoy days off - I’ve found that an easy recovery day is both better for me mentally (I’m all jittery if I don’t get on the bike at all in a day…) and doesn’t affect my ability to go hard the next day.
