It's winter, freezing around most of the country, and we've likely turned to the indoor trainer. Keep the focus on getting the mileage. It's easy to forego L*D for HIT to make the trainer time more fun, but these are short term gains that compromise long-term improvement. Intensity is a part of the routine, but a relatively small percentage - keep looking ahead to answer the question: "Will the work I do today help me next week or next month?"

While high-intensity interval sessions get all the attention, there are certain powerful physiological adaptations that only result from long, slow rides.

We can all find greater health and wellness into old age, but we can't do it alone. Work makes up such a significant portion of our daily hours that in many cases it comes down to employers being proactive to not only "support" employee health, but actively get in the driver's seat to push it. I have seen this executed poorly in the past and it's not until we're willing to change the framework around how business operate that we'll turn the tables.
