You will have built your endurance in the "base" phase. You are now looking for muscular and cardiovascular development from your sessions. You can't do those sessions everyday (you should be doing them at an intensity that would make that impossible). If you are only 1-2 years into riding you will likely get more benefit from resting completely on those "off" days than from having a recovery ride.
