I’m new to the TrainerRoad thing. Indoor riding has never been my favorite. 15 min on the mag trainer and I’m ready to bail. At 72 I decided to give it another try. Got a kickr andTR. Took a few weeks to figure out a plan. For me Sweet Spot base mid volume seems to be the best for getting in a longer ride outside. Not exactly the rest day as they want me to do but riding outside is what it’s about. Where I live in Wimberley it’s either up or down. I don’t think there are any flats longer than 1 mile and those are few and far between. Going to do the 100 mile https://www.letapesanantonio.com/ . See if I can knock off an hour from last years time.
For recovery I drink about 40g protein right after a ride/workout. Spin for an extra 5 min after an indoor session. Compression leg things. Walk the dog in the park for 1 hour everyday. Weight training is mostly yard, farm type work, bags of feed, hay ect…
Will join the Strava for oldies group and see what others are doing.
