Understand that 3 days off is suggested and a light recovery ride is fine. My real indicator is climbing a flight of stairs and if my legs feel tired on the second to last step, I know I need a day off.
what prompted the question was doing two higher mileage days in the heat and Garmin suggested 3 days this time. My staircase confirmed how tired I was since it my legs felt tired after the first step. That prompted the question whether people take it seriously
did like the comment about the random number generator. 😀.
I am taking the prescribed days off as an experiment but am still dog walking, gardening and not sitting on my backside full time.
