Terrain-based resistance doesn’t apply during structured workouts in Zwift. So you can do any TrainerRoad workout on any route without concern about terrain!
For me workouts always get the flat routes with the least elevation change. Nothing worse than doing big watts and going 4 mph, plus you get the high average “speed” and lots of “miles” to feel good about riding inside.
Oh I know…it’s just a thing that bugs me mentally when doing workouts on zwift… when my interval effort is mismatched from the visual terrain. Seeing your avatar barely moving up a climb during a recovery interval, or having to push threshhold when your character is decending etc…
So the next question… I know, I know too soon… Is when Progression Levels 2.0 will be released so free rides in Zwift will count for endurance and temp haha. Excited to do TR workouts in Zwift. Awesome work guys!
Yes it will!
At the end of the workout it asks you to rate it from 10. I just did a workout and rated it as a 5/10 which when it synced with TrainerRoad came out as moderate rating. Are you changing to rating system in TrainerRoad to be a number from 1-10 as well or are there two rating systems depending on it you do it in the TrainerRoad platform or the zwift platform?
We’re translating it to the TR system of 1-5. We need to this stay consistent.
That worked! Thank you.
Yeah, it sucks when you end up going uphill at 5 km/h during recovery intervals. I’ve found it works much better to pick flat routes like Tempus Fugit for anything that has Z1 intervals and only do routes with hills for endurance and tempo rides where the effort is more steady.
Great work team
Was very seamless. Worked well. Thank you
Awesome! Will this change functionality with the Zwift Ride Frame? In other words, if I’m doing a TR workout in zwift on the Zwift Ride Frame will I be able to shift using the buttons from the controller? Or will I still be stuck in ERG mode only essentially? TIA
After changing my jersey, I was forced to change my head gear, socks, and shoes to match.
Just to double check: Does inactivating workout instructional text in the TR app also remove it from the Zwift interface? If so that’s a nice change!
I did a TR workout in Zwift this morning, it was seamless and a really nice additional motivator to push through the threshold blocks. Well done TR team!
Same as any Zwift workout pre-TR connection.
Yes!
Congratulations TR folks. Thanks for all the hard work. So, now in the tradition of “give 'em an inch and they’ll ask for a mile”, can y’all do it again for Training Peaks Virtual? I know they’re the new guys on the block and have a much smaller user base at this point, but I think TP and TR are a much better fit than Zwift and TR.
Finally! Amazing work, thank you for believing and being open minded, this will benefit your platform greatly
I’ve got the kit…just wondering what the TrainerRoad approved sock&shoe colour combination is?
Which is faster…
Thank you TR group. Been riding both TR and Zwift for a couple of years, and now the integration is the cherry on the cake!
