:: What is your typical training diary for 10 days? What is you post exercise dietary intake (amount of grams or calories from carbs durring the first 90 minutes post training).
During my bigger training blocks my weekly hours will be from 25-35hours during build weeks. With my long days being 6-8hours and easy days 2.5-3hours. I am very consious as well of post ride nutrition and consume approx 50g of carb and 10-15g of protein (body weight 65kg) within 15-30 mins of finishing my longer workouts and then smaller amounts every 60-90min after
I think you offer a good starting point at reducing my training hours on my easy days, I think I maybe chronically depleting my glycogen stores. The few long days that I have done without "energy" issues have usually been preceded by an easy training period.
