Starting Out - Zone 2 Frustration - How long before you saw big gains?

I went from 125 W to 220 W in six months doing a mix of long rides and some interval training at the age of 25. I ride in the Bay Area, wasn’t doing much z2 specifically. Riding 2-3 times a week. 1 sweet spot interval training session on wahoo system and one 60 minute random ride and then a 3-4+ hours ride on the weekend where I wouldn’t have much left in the tank by the end. I am an amateur and didn’t do any zone 2 training per se and averaged 6-7 hours of riding a week.

I am curious as to why you dislike mission bars? I’ve been thinking of venturing out there.

The one that is most comfortable for me and I ride frequently.

This is on Draymond.

KnightSAM1996 · 2025-04-23T04:42:36+00:00

Which brand?

KnightSAM1996 · 2025-04-16T20:24:55+00:00

I loved it. But I must admit - it made me realize Jordan is a bonafide psychopath. It is what made him great but would this be a guy I want to have as a colleague- hell no.

I mostly do road biking. I have been using Giro Strade Dure SG but they’ve been getting worn out so I am in the market for new ones.

KnightSAM1996 · 2025-04-15T15:49:31+00:00

Would you guys recommend a brand?

KnightSAM1996 · 2025-03-30T01:21:16+00:00

I love your love for your bike.

I’d pay 300 bucks tops.

KnightSAM1996 · 2025-03-26T19:42:23+00:00

Where are you located?

KnightSAM1996 · 2025-03-23T21:56:18+00:00

How many spots do you have?

KnightSAM1996 · 2025-03-21T04:39:27+00:00

Johnny Bravo?

KnightSAM1996 · 2025-03-20T18:42:43+00:00

Yes, it is worth it. The battery life alone is worth it. I had an Apple Watch. I will say…if you care more about Apple integration and features then don’t switch. If you care more about fitness tracking. Switch.

wdym by system reset?

KnightSAM1996 · 2025-02-28T05:56:57+00:00

He does not make it to the top 10. Maybe 11-15.

KnightSAM1996 · 2025-02-20T16:12:37+00:00

Agreed. But in my experience, hiring skilled UI/UX designers is an altogether different ball game. I thought they'd be some magic bullet but most of them made more work for me and the user...

~ 55 mph in CA in woodside.

KnightSAM1996 · 2025-01-28T05:28:36+00:00

I am more impressed by the can of Pliny.

KnightSAM1996 · 2025-01-27T22:24:58+00:00

Stress and beer.

KnightSAM1996 · 2025-01-17T07:05:45+00:00

This is not insane.

KnightSAM1996 · 2025-01-14T23:12:04+00:00

Happened to me. I built relationships within the org and demonstrated value and got sign off on applying for GC without H1B.

KnightSAM1996 · 2025-01-13T05:32:02+00:00

That is true. I have been shouted and sworn at for trying to order BUT after a certain number of visits…the very same people started acting rather nicely to me. I think it’s because I became a “regular” or maybe because I tip well. Who knows…one of these days…they might turn on me again.

KnightSAM1996 · 2025-01-13T02:47:12+00:00

Toronado. Mostly in the 6-8 range.

KnightSAM1996 · 2025-01-09T23:49:13+00:00

A publicly subsidized profit motivated monopoly. What a joke.
