hi, i'm new to the forum and about a year into mountain biking, anyhoo, on to my question. fitness?, i started off easy last year and gradually built up skills and distance alongside fitness, i had a great summers hard riding but it has kind of ended in disaster, i picked up a quad injury late in summer and battled on not thinking much of it, i went to a sports rehab therapist and they told me that, apart from my cleats being in the wrong position and my seat height being wrong that my body had "crashed" through overtraining, this is all new to me as i spent the prior 19 years of my life hard living so fitness is new to me, i train on a turbo trainer with carmicheal training systems and all in all i would have said that i was pretty fit, my therapist did say that i was going too hard too often,so my point is, what would you say is a good training regime, assuming that i get through rehab ok injury free.
i'm the kind of guy that goes all out and being as i'm doing this on my own it would be great to know bout recovery times etc, how often to ride etc, bear in mind that through summer i was riding about ten miles every day hard, now that i'm in rehab with the injury it'll take me a long time to get back where i was. enough of my ranting
