Either you are rocking above ~85% max HR
Or you are cruising easily below ~75% max HR
Sounds a lot like the stay-out-of-no-mans-land days of early 90's Carmichael/USAC training
The KISS principle applies = go easy when easy, go hard when hard
Much appreciated. Doing a quick search through there for "volume," it looks like they're talking about people with more training time. I think my 5 hours a week should be the intense stuff, and just add in the other stuff if I have time. No way I'm only doing 1 hour of high tempo each week.
In other words, it doesn't look like anything would change for me at all.
