My goal at the momement is to increase my lactate threshold, especially on those on long steady climbs.
I have good leg strength and I am fairly lean at about 8% BF.
I have a big mountain to climb so it is easy for me to reach LT and hold it.
I can train 5 days per week...one is a long ride.
If not doing intervals on any of those days then how many days per week could I safely do LT workouts without risking overtraining? Also how many hours "off" should I have been LT workouts?
Mentally I like the longer LT intervals of about 20-40 minutes more than the short ones of 10-15 minutes.
