Unable to ride slow

”Unable To Ride Slow”, should be reworded as “Unwilling To Ride Slow”. One of the most common mistakes of amateur riders is going too hard on their easy days and too easy on their hard days. You get faster through recovery as you reap the benefits of your hard training. So recover as hard as you train. It takes decipline to follow the plans as prescribed and not get swept away by motivation to always be doing more, which will likely result in lesser/slower fitness growth. That being said, on a LV plan a full week of recovery is likely not needed.
