it all comfortable & rosy until you have a crash, and get road rash on your hands.

Road rash on shoulder, elbow, hip & thigh are bad enough but now you add 1 or 2 bloodied hands/palms into the mix which you can't use to do anything for yourself whole nursing your wounds.

Gloveless is one of the reasons but the main one is perhaps me not changing bar tape frequently

Before you say anything, I ride a lot, a lot more than you

And I ride indoors too

i found the structural training really give alot improvement compared to junk miles outside.. unless ur goal is just to relax and santai..
indoor training even just 45min-1hr can be quite effective in improving cycling power..and can be done at the comfort of ur home..i see it as a big advantage.. rclxms.gif

Structured training helps for sure but I can also say that based on my personal experience, out of fatigue and tedium, one will reach his or her plateau much earlier than before.

Many reasons contribute to that too, like paralysis of analyses, not taking full data into account, unwillingness to de-load, nutrition, etc.

I have friends who ride out, with little to no structure but improved at a higher rate than when he restricted himself to indoor structured training sessions.

That said, structured trainings do aid in one thing, it is controlled stress thus lowers the chances of one getting injured. Also controlled stress equates to controlled fatigue, which is why many pros advocate the usage and subscription of Training Peaks to monitor one’s stress and that is another lengthy discussion that involves logarithms that mostly get derived from what you are exposed to right now, such as TSS(Training Stress Scores).

I do not monitor my progress to that depth and I am not informed enough to explain but I was taught and exposed by some silent readers here who are really smart.
*
I also set myself with weekly total TSS goal (450-550-450-250) to push myself further.. but just self research and self taught.. i wanted improvement only so just did some research and follow instinct.. because i got limited time to go outdoor for cycling.. need to split nicely between being a dad+IT support+cyclist.. biggrin.gif

In my opinion, TSS on rides ≠ TSS on training rides

Training TSS in my opinion should be progressive and not erratic

Also TSS is only accurate if your FTP is accurate

FTP is only accurate if your power meter is consistent and accurate

It does not matter if the numbers are high or low, so long it is consistent
*
yep.. TSS based on normalized power and FTP and duration.. just do zero offset before u ride should be ok already.. so far my Favero Assioma quite consistent la..
as long as do it consistently, got result one.. just rajin kayuh according to training plan..lets get stronger together!

Hi  all.. I am a newbie here and seeking advice from al gurus here smile.gif
I recently bought a thinkrider X (smart wheel-on trainer), the resistance seems to be constant. Although in zwift the gradient increases the resistance is still the same but my avatar's speed becomes slower... so I have to lower my gear to (creating more resistance) then only my avatar's speed will go faster. is this normal ? Thanks
*
i think u didnt turn on ERG mode? hence the resistance stay the same? not sure la.. i don have smart trainer.. but it sounds like that..

during uphill, speed memang will drop..just ignore ur speed.. focus on the wattage... u should see the wattage about the same regardless flat or uphill since the resistance is same..

I once said less than 100km is short ride. So why waste the weekends doing short rides. He said i bodo. Apa sarahan???
*
Hahaha.. short or not depends on personal preference la.. to me, short ride is anything below 2 hours.. haha..usually i wanna go home asap, so i pedal harder je tongue.gif

QUOTE(andrewhtf @ Sep 17 2020, 02:03 PM)
I can only do this once in a blue moon. Plus I did it yesterday for a reason.  Otherwise I would just ride KTM down to kl.

Whole day out.  Do it too often, wife gonna divorce me, mom gonna disown me.
*
this correct..kena pandai pandai.. especially if u have child, cannot every weekend also MIA until evening only come back..
hence i usually kena be at home by 11+..if wanna get more junk miles, kena pedal harder.. else little miles only..
