How have your training structures changed over the years? I'm not asking about micro details of each training element (not yet), but in the more general sense.
Really, I haven't changed my basic training structure for cycling too much since my college racing days. I train smarter and listen to my body more then I did then, that's for certain (my wife hates it when I say that :rolleyes: ).
Basic Structure:
Monday: Rest/easy spin
Tuesday: Sprint training
Wednesday: Hills
Thursday: Long distance
Friday: Easy spin
Saturday: Race/ med distance
Sunday: Race/ Long distance
Again, the micro details change depending on where in the season I am. I'll add a rest day if I feel I need it. But that is the basic structure. Pretty much even when I'm not racing.
