Hi there,
I will be having a baby in early Jan (2nd Child, wasn’t really training whent the first one came), by that time I should have compleated SSB1 which i’m augmenting with extra Zone2 riding bringing my TSS up to 600-700 Per week, 12-14 hours Per week.
Whent the baby comes this volume will have to drastically decrease the first few weeks I will be at home and probebly only get in 3-5 hours per week, I’m currently wondering if my time will best be served doing a 3 week Block of Vo2 Max sessions during this time?
Something along the lines of 2 Vo2 Max sessions of around 100TSS each and one session of Sweet Spot around 100TSS, bringing me to 3-4 Hours. then whatever easy rides I can fit in/feel up to.
My aim during this time wouldn’t be to build fitness but try and keep what I currently have.
Once I get back to work I can start to increase my volume and build again dependant on how much sleep I’m getting (I commute an can do intervals at lunchtimes).
Anyone been through similiar, any tips from Dad’s during this time? Thanks for any help.
