Good morning guys. I’m sending feedback since I reached the end of the 6-week period I had put in place for you SS1 plan. I’ll tell you that I didn’t complete it although due to no fault of the plan or you all. Long story short: I ended up in the hospital a couple of weeks ago with pulmonary clots and had to - abruptly! - discontinue training. I’m home now and recovering. Starting slowly with limited sessions on the trainer and I’ll ramp up from there.
Beyond that, though, I wanted to let you know that I thought the plan was spot on. Straighforward enough to clearly understand the purpose and progression and built on well-established training principles. I started with a field test and by the end of 4 weeks I was so clearly beyond the FTP data point I had taken that I was looking forward to finishing the plan and seeing what progress I had made.
Due to my health and the pandemic lockdown we’re all experiencing, I don’t have any target events on my calendar. And I’m on blood thinners for the time being so I’m not sure when outdoor riding will again be a regular part of my training. But, in the meantime, and once I confirm I can handle the training load, I plan to restart the plan. Then, once I successfully complete it, continue on with the other sweet spot plans. You have a satisfied customer! Jonathan Paul
