If you are doing races, either road races or TTs you might need to reduce some of the more intensive training efforts to balance the overall training load. For example if you race twice or more every week most of your other training would be just easy cycling for recovery and endurance. I think if you work or study five days training is th most that you should do to allow for rest and recovery.

I am not sure if races, whether TT or road races are counted as training or if they are in addition to training?
