Did Zwift - got bored.
Did trainerroad for a while, it's OK, but without a target to work towards it's tough to get motivated.
So, my new plan, which I've been doing for a couple of weeks and seems sustainable.
M-Th - 30 mins at low intensity on the trainer watching TV or music videos on youtube.
Fr - off
Sat - Hard ride outside (1-1.5 hours)
Sun - Hard ride outside (2-3 hours)
That gives me up to 6.5 hours per week (and it would be pretty easy to add 2-3 hours without impacting anything).
Yes, I know that I should be doing structured work on the trainer and "maximizing my return on investment", but honestly, with nothing on the horizon I'm more interested in re-establishing a good routine. My main goal right now is to avg 30 km/h on my local long loop (at about 28 right now), not hammering the whole way, just picking a couple of segments to go for and moderate riding for the rest.
