I started my first Polarized Coach Jack plan last week. I did the Serious Italian Plan last spring. I realized I was addicted to the HIIT adrenaline rush when I started Jack’s plans last winter. I sometimes bump up the intensity in the hard work intervals if I am feeling strong, but otherwise trying to follow the plan.
The plan has 4 rides per week - M/W/F and longer ride Sat. It is a 12 week plan. Here are the first 5 weeks:
My intervals.icu metric is hanging out in the Fresh zone. Is that appropriate? What should I expect it to show over the next 3 months? I am still trying to understand this style of training.
Thanks.
