the impression I get is that the higher up you go, your training and diet becomes increasingly methodical. I'm still a long ways away from even getting close, but I'm just curious how you guys train, how you balance between intervals/endurance, work/cycling, diet, considering where I live, cycling isn't really big, and there's like two cyclists whom I can really learn from.
The answer to that is as numerous as there are riders.
Average? 10-15, I would guess. But it's a guess, and certainly there are competitive guys doing well at much less. Min/Max your training to min/max your talent and apply it at the right time, know what I mean?
