Periodization For The 8h Per Week Cyclist? Cat 4 Questions. - a podcast by EVOQ.BIKE

Here's a potential future question for you: how should people with limited training time (6-8 hours per week) think about periodization? Chris Carmichael (in Time-Crunched Cyclist) is essentially saying that a traditional base-build-taper really only works for high volume (12+ hour riders), and instead suggests more of an on/off approach (high intensity 11 week build phase, followed by 4-6 week recovery phase, rinse and repeat). Wondering what you think and what recommendations you might have for thinking about planning training across the course of a year.
