Optimal Training to Ride Faster/Longer/Efficiently?
Discussion
My Goal is to be able to ride 20miles a day most days of the week rain or shine at a reasonable pace,
I'm a weak skinny-fat 27y old office worker with no endurance/power whatsoever, currently after riding 20miles in one go I feel knackered and out for 2days. I can maybe sustain riding 6-7miles in good weather every 2days with no effects at the moment.
How do I get there and train my body in the most efficient way to achieve this without overdoing it and messing myself up?
How often/ in what way/ at what speed and for how long /with what kind of increases the training should be done?
I realise this is a lot like weight lifting and most of the gains comes from hitting it the right amount and having a good rest.
Has anyone been in my shoes? How did you got there? What was your experience?
