I haven’t done any intervals in the trainer for a while, I was feeling motivated so I planned for
3 x 24 (O/U)…the idea was to work at or below LTHR, but at the end of interval #2 HR was 3-5 bpm above. Decided to cut it. Next week I will do 2 x 30 and that will be better mentally and more apt for my goals of increasing sustained power.

Had a score to settle down with this workout…! Epic fail on November 21 (my second day on TR plan)
Today…
Kaweah in the books. A pseudo proof-of-ramp test I reckon. Had to dig pretty deep and was cooked at the end.
Last week of SSBMVII so I’m inclined to carry on with completing the rest of the week and write this one off unless there’s advice to the contrary.
I have just climbed off the Lamarck workout, and after struggling with Spencer+2 yesterday (and having to drop the intensity on the later intervals), I could’ve added one or two intervals. I am certainly have a lot of work to do on my VO2 max sessions, as I am clearly a sustained effort rider!
I just finished CLARK. This is Sweet Spot but by the end of the last and second to last intervals it felt close to 9.5 RPE. I still managed to complete the workout but is it supposed to become this hard by the end of the workout?
PS.: I was fuelling during the workout (1 cliff bar + 1 gel)
We did the same workout today!
Good job! I good midweek workout lol
I sometimes think I would prefer Jelly Of The Month club to TR 
Right back at you! I’m dreading Fish -2 on Friday… 
This was much harder than I expected and there was no workout text so I missed having Coach Chad telling me that I had done a nice job at the end. Not one of my favorites.
Found this much harder than anticipated. Just trying to tick over at the moment to get me through to end of January when I’ll start to concentrate on increasing ftp again. Onwards.
Marcus Baker -3 as well @KlemenSj!
Calling this a minus anything does it no justice! Especially at the end of a modified SSB2MV week 1 and preceded by Kaweah yesterday! Last two intervals took some focus.
Just taking each day as it comes until I feel fit enough to commit to a structured plan again.
Happy with today’s effort, I’ve also had some kind of an epiphany in so much that I’ve just started to workout with my heart rate hidden.
I’ve always been too focussed on my HR, having suffered regular palpitations for a long time.
Since I gave up caffeine in August my palpitations are almost gone so I do worry a lot less about my heart.
Can’t wait for the ticker to explode on my next ramp test🤣
