Look at it another way, if you’re doing a plan then you’re playing the long game, right now you don’t need top end power so why train it? Sure there’s no harm doing one session per week or a hill smashing Strava ride but don’t let that deviate from what your plan is designed to do.
I finished a hill climb season 4 weeks ago, that was all top end training for 8 weeks, I’ve done no top end work since. For once I’m actually driving to build my engine so that when the time comes to build then specialise I’ll be in the best shape possible to handle those horrific VO2 max sessions. I’ll caveat that by saying there will be the odd ride where I’ll do some hard efforts but that’s just to keep things fresh, not to the detriment of my base phase.
