If the goal is being a better cyclist and you’re on a LV plan then the priority has to be figuring out how to spend more time on the bike. Which would include:
- Cutting back on the strength training, or at least reduce the amount of leg lifting you’re doing to leave your legs fresher for the bike
- Supplement your plan with Z2 riding. You could also try gradually working your way up to the MV plan e.g. by substituting a workout from the LV plan with the longer equivalent from the MV plan
- Sleep! If I could get 8 hours a night and a 40 minute siesta I could handle a lot more volume
- Make sure your healthy meals have plenty of carbs to fuel the training
- Yoga or pilates are good for maintenance, injury prevention and recovery
- Foam rolling, massage sticks, etc can also help with the recovery
