To wrap up my season (I can't plan ahead with the knee injury, so my season plans are done), here's my WKO+ Performance Management Chart for 2009.
Red is short-term load (7-day trend). Blue is 42-day trend. Yellow is fatigue relative to long-term load.
The training stress score / load is a measure of time and intensity, where 100 points is equal to one hour at 60-minute max sustainable pace. In 09, typical moderately brisk 3-4 weekend rides are 150-200 TSS, 1-2hr weekday rides are 40 to 120 TSS.
My program was quite structured from November to injury in late April, working with Whole Athlete. Monday and Thursday were rest days, off the bike. Tuesday was sprints/speedwork, Wednesday was tempo endurance/intervals, Friday cadence, Saturday hills, and Sunday base.
