Hi Bryan,

Thanks for writing in. Another Month of base training is what I’d suggest too. You can continue to increase the volume as the plan has increased volume (approx 10% per week), as well as integrate a rest week. Or, you can look back at your actual hours in zones, see the increase per week (assuming it has..) and, if there was no issue with these increases per week, apply the same proportionate increases to the next 4weeks.  Listen to your body though as increasing volume is dependent on tolerance and not just fallowing formula. Perhaps another AeT test before you start this additional Base month will ensure you’re on track.

Hope this helps and enjoy the Bugs!
