For the last few training cycles I've hired coaches. They have all stuck to a three-week build followed by a down week. It's greatly increased the results of my training. The only injury I've picked up this year was blowing off steam between coaching sessions after a 100k race. I very much agree with your assertion that suppression of pain signals becomes ingrained. Bouncing these concerns off someone who can leverage numerous people's experiences can be incredibly useful. I'll retain my coach through recovery this time.
