Too Much Tempo Riding? (2010, Embarrassing!) #328
EVOQ.BIKE Cycling Podcast - A podcast by EVOQ.BIKE

Dear Lord, Those 2010 Numbers. I can't even. I've been commenting on the question: "Have I been riding too much tempo this year, now that I live in the Blue Ridge Mountains?" Now that a 4 hour ride equates to 7,000-8,000 feet of climbing, I've seen an increase in some Zone 1 time (switchbacks and some crazy descents); but what about Tempo? Riding tempo is good, but like anything, too much of it is not. https://www.evoq.bike/blog/tempo-the-silent-killer How has my power distribution changed? How close am I to the 95/5 or 90/10 that they talk about with Polarized Training? https://youtu.be/6MXJnHR7TSc
