It does take time, but you should notice gradual improvement. What do you mean by zone 2? Roughly what percentage of FTP or max HR? What other sessions do you do? Any typical examples?
What sessions have caused you to pass out?
Last pass out was about 4 weeks ago. 8 x 1.5km sprints. I did 60mins on the bike and then hit the sprints, got to sprint 5 and felt whoosy. So I headed to the bathroom, passed out on the cold floor. Had some water and warmed down
I'm not saying its normal... But if I haven't eaten and I'm terrible at staying hydrated. I presume this is quite normal
Not normal.. I do fasted workouts all the time. Very hard ones. Always awake. Never seen anyone pass out and I've seen dehydrated people go harder than you are describing.
A doctor should probably know about that.
And like people said in every one of your very similar threads, 5-6 scattered hours per week is not gonna get you anywhere soon. Listen to the people that are telling you to commit to a better plan.
I'm so confused. People have said change one session to 2 x 20mins and have longer runs
Triathlon Tarin says only 2 sessions a week hahahaha
Doctor said drink some concrete. The kiwi way of saying stop being a pussy.
At this pint you could probably go with the two workout plan that taren talks about. A longer session with some cadence work mixed in and a short, hard session.
Next training cycle, pick a legit plan and follow it. That way as your training progresses you know what to tweak and what you respond best too.
I think your doc may be a bit out of touch if he’s telling you to HTFU when you’re passing out from some moderately hard workouts. I do fasted bricks a good bit. Up to 2.5-3 hours and have never even felt remotely close to passing out. Something like isn’t jiving and it could be potentially dangerous.
Telling people to HTFU when they pass out is how high school kids die during summer workouts for football. Old school thinking based on old school science. The new school is to train smart.
