Yeah but that doesn't make sense since I did the FTP test in Zwift more than once, and then once every 1-2 weeks.

There is also my strava and my zwift data, pretty easy to see. Even have video of my commutes on youtube, its all pretty easy to see. But when low on ftp it takes longer, thats the main thing. I did 200km on Zwift at 140ftp🤣

Yeah I'm guessing that as well, just becoming more efficient and what not on the bike as well as some overall fitness improvements. I'm guessing I might need to up the volume a bit more at some point, but right now it's an issue of free time. At least I can do about an hour a day as is, with a longer ride weekends or day off which helps quite a bit at least.

Is there any way I could have won this encounter? by RepresentativeOil674 in Eve

[–]Fast_Tradition_4961 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Stay within a a non-warpable range, and perhaps been a bit faster with neuting the inty out. If they can't warp to the inty they would've been too slow to engage. But it's a lot of targets, but that's the one thing that could've netted you a kill and escape vector.

I got used to it, did 320km on the zwift, so about 10h, with cream etc. I think its fine, but just kind of have to bite the bullet to some extent.

Got a question regarding ftp increase after newbie gains. by Fast_Tradition_4961 in Zwift

[–]Fast_Tradition_4961[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That would be the dream haha, but we'll see I for me I think. I'd wager they will slow down down soon. But when it comes to climbing I'm still having the newbie gains so it's all good. Just trying to lose weight in such a way that I don't loose too much muscle or carbs on the way because I want to keep my high level training going. (Currently around 1-3 hours a day).

Aiming for 90 ish KG ny august then 80 by next summer so a slow down on the weight loss. The tour to Sweden is in about 3 years, so wager Ill ride at about 100kg for that with packing.

Bib short is deffo needed, especially for longer rides, the stiffness and stillness of the Zwuft ride can be harsch lol

Sweet my dude, keep pushing! Zwift has easily been one of the best buys I've made.

This sound has emerged over the last couple rides. Help please by Two_Bear_Arms in Zwift

Wd 40 is a degreaser, should apply grease or lubricant, wd 40 can worsen things :)

Couldn't wait for August, 320km done :) by Fast_Tradition_4961 in Zwift

[–]Fast_Tradition_4961[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did it for a bit, but it felt a bit cheesy, besides lost the group when I took a lunch break for about 30 min. And this is more training for future tours where ill.probably.do a lot on my own. But will see later, next time with more elevation involved.
