[quote=Anonymous]Your fitness comes from the recovery, not the workout. Get appropriate rest in various time periods. Rest during the week, every few weeks take a rest week, annually have a cycle that involves training, peaking, and recovery as well. I'm a 40 year old male cyclist. During training I ride about 8-10 hours a week, varying the intensity during the appropriate times of the year. Rest weeks have about half the work of regular weeks, and within training weeks rest days as needed. Usually only 1 set of back to back workout days per week. And when the season is over there are a few months of downtime and slowly working back to training shape. I suppose if you just want to burn calories none of that matters, but still you should get rest.[/quote]
