I’ve come to a fairly frustrating conclusion: if I don’t train for more than a single day, my fitness quickly drops off. Wattage is lower, hr is higher, and that’s just the objective measurements.
This can be frustrating, as if I have any drop in motivation or some external event occurs, then I have to suffer for a few days doing wimpy workouts and dog shit recovery runs/rides/swims.
Normal numbers for riding is like ~240 watts at ~145 bpm for a few hours. After just three days off, I’m doing 210 W at 150 bpm and hating life. What is the deal? Am I alone?
