Wrapping up Sweet Spot Polarized Plan with great success! FTP is up 12w after first test and heart rate is down 15-20 BPMs.
Question…As I pivot to Advanced Hilly Gravel, I have a gap week next week to ensure that the next plan coincides with my main event on 6/26.
Should I treat next week as a regeneration week since the hilly plan is 5 straight weeks with a final taper week or add one more week (for 3 weeks straight polarized after a regen week)? In the second scenario, I would adjust week 1 of the Hilly Gravel to be a regenerative sort of week.
I’m leaning toward going light on volume this week and doing a sim ride next weekend and then hitting the last 5 straight before tapering.
Thoughts?
