I ask because I've been doing the 4 day a week thing because my schedule has been crazy this week and I was wondering if the extra miles and rest would help build a base faster, or at least in fewer total riding days.

Is my logic on track? Does it depend? If so, what does it depend on?

4 intense days with goo recovery is much better
