MTB Training program recommendations

Just as a follow up to my question, The trainer program I will be
starting with will work as follows;
Week1 45mins, average speed 25km per hour, light resistance (about 3
on my trainer)
Week2 50mins (week1 * 10%), 25km per hour, light resistance (about 3
or 4 on my trainer)
Week3 55mins (week2 * 10%), 25km per hour, light resistance (about 3
or 4 on my trainer)
Week4 45mins (same as week1), 25km per hour, light resistance (about
3 or 4 on my trainer)

Week5 60mins (week3 * 10%), 25km per hour, light resistance (about 3
or 4 on my trainer)
Week6 65mins (week5 * 10%), 25km per hour, medium resistance (about 4
or 5 on my trainer)
Week7 73mins (week6 * 10%), 25km per hour, medium resistance (about 4
or 5 on my trainer)
Week8 60mins (same as week5), 25km per hour, light resistance (about
3 or 4 on my trainer)

I will be looking at doing between 3-5 rides a week, with weight
training on days not riding. These numbers may be adjusted over time,
pending work schedule.

Any added recommendations or comments on the above training Program?

Probably nothing. Ever hear of a "signature"? It's on every one of my
posts.

If you ever get a chance, come up to Northern Ontario in the spring
time and honk your car horn at the first moose you see on/near the
road.

I don't own a car.

You'll see pretty quickly that nature, for the most part, can
take care of itself. (btw, they like trucks and SUVs the best, compact
cars crush too easy.)

How do you get to the airport to attend "Lectures Given at
International Environmental Conferences"?
Walk?

Interestingly, there are some airports that one can walk to. I walked
to the Adelaide, Australia airport from where I was staying.San
Diego's airport is within walking distance of downtown. I'm sure there
are lots of others.

Only greedy people who have no concern for the enviroment use air
travel. They know full well that jets dump pollution directly in the
upper troposphere and lower stratusphere.

Next time take a sailboat.

"By 2050, carbon-dioxide emissions from airliners are expected to grow
two to 10 times the 1992 level, thanks to increasing air traffic,
according to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change report co-
authored byDr. Penner. By then, aircraft emissions will have risen to
5 percent of the cause of global warming, IPCC says.

New research suggests the problem could be even bigger. "Contrails can
be called a cause of warming and definitely need to be considered in
climate-change models," says Patrick Minnis, an atmospheric scientist
at Langley Research Center in Hampton, Va., part of the National
Aeronautics and Space Administration."

""Aviation's impact on the environment could be immense. Jet engines
directly emit greenhouse gases by burning kerosene."

Have you ever used a motor vehicle for travel? If so, you don't have a
position for criticizing anyone.

NO, I never have so calling me a hypocrite is a LIE.

YOU are the hypocrite for using a form of travel that is damaging to
the planet when you could be going by SAILBOAT or using conference
calling.
