I'm trying to figure out how to progress quickly without crashing and burning from overdoing it. I usually end my weeks with a big weekend of riding, then take monday off, ease into tuesday, and start the new week on Wed and Thu, with a rest day on Friday before another big weekend. The past two weeks have been 800+ TSS weeks, which is pretty high for me I suppose. I normally average mid-600's at this time of year. I'll be going into another big weekend tomorrow and then taking a rest week starting Monday. SB will probably be around -40 after Sunday's ride.

Lately I've been feeling like I'm overdoing it. I'm tired and moody by end of the third week, probably from overreaching. I'd like to dial it back a little bit so I can enjoy life a little more, but still continue making gains in fitness

If I need to dial it back, which do you think would be better - dropping a day but keeping the 3-week cycle, or going with a 2-week cycle and continuing to ride 5 days a week?
