Do NOT do the same or similar intensity on all of your rides. As others have said, mix it up. Easy days, hard days, longer rides, shorter rides. You need the short harder rides to see gains, but you also need the longer lower intensity rides as well as the simply low intensity rides of any length mixed in.
