Having a goal is a good thing. I just trained because… but in join I discovered all these events and just picked what seemed to be the toughest and started training for that and it became something I really enjoyed doing but zwift’s goals, let’s just say they need some work…
some cycling activities were being put on incorrect days
Thanks for the report! It appears there is an issue with timezone reporting correctly from the Android version of Zwift Game when saving an activity. We are working on a game fix (v1.87.3) that should be releasing in the next couple of days.
I know.
I’m a grumpy old man yelling at squirrels and chihuahuas.
The issue is two power meters could be vastly different in terms of calibration and accuracy. The difference between mine is not a problem for me personally (within 5-10W or so), but if you have a garbage outdoor power meter, and a great indoor one, you might end up with the wrong ZRS score due to your crappy outdoor power meter. The reality is you’re doing the indoor races on your indoor power meter so that’s the one that is relevant.
Replying to my own issue above in case someone else has the same problem:
I wanted to link my Wahoo account to Zwift so outdoor rides with my Wahoo Bolt are seen by the ZC Fitness Tracker. But when using Safari on my iPhone 13 running iOS 18.4, after logging into, the browser would hang when I clicked “Authorize” and fail to link the accounts.
Thanks to the hint from @brumohr (thanks again for your help!), I solved the problem by using my laptop w/ Firefox instead of using my iPhone. On my laptop, everything worked fine, and I linked Zwift to Wahoo without issue.
Serious suggestion, please add an option for a 7-day-ahead view showing events I’m signed up for and workouts I want to schedule (a route, or something from the erg library, or a custom erg workout (I know I’m dreaming here), or “ride with Coco for an hour,” or some custom note like “do a vo2max workout”) instead of the fixed Monday-Sunday week.
Not sure if this is an @evan-zwift thing
Seems the weekly distance goal defaults to 30kms, rather than what have had set in Zwift
As someone who trains and competes in triathlons regularly for Zwift to tell me I’m detraining is pretty crazy. My friends call me borderline anorexic and now Zwift is telling me I’m not training enough because I train outside? Maybe I should eat less…
About past outdoor rides, should I expect to find them automatically in the fitness track? I disconnected and riconnected my Garmin account in zwift several times
Yesterday, I was Overreaching
I was out with my running club doing hill reps last night, and today I’m Productive.
That’s all you need to know about the value of this feature.
I record my runs with my Apple Watch, rather with Strava or with the Apple training app. So the runs will not be in my Wahoo ecosystem (I don‘t use Garmin). Do you plan to integrate such activities? Otherwise the tracker does not give me the right status and is useless. Thanks.
This is working for me now. This fitness tracking is the main way I use strava and I prefer the colours and buzz on zwift so I think its a great addition
It really is a bad case of GIGO, since it doesn’t have all the important data, the output is useless.
I don’t know how good zwift’s implementation is but ctl/atl are very valuable metrics if you know how they work but indeed if you don’t and do not properly feed the model it’s cigo
My feeling is the people who do understand those metrics have alternative ways of gaining that data - Intervals, TrainingPeaks as likely they ride outdoors etc
Those who dont understand it, might use the Zwift implementation and if they are not aware it is not accurate and how this can mis-represent their training status it could lead to users becoming fatigued or worse injured.
There should be caveats all over this release - Instead Zwift explain TSS in the way of riding 1hr every day at IF 1.0 will give you a TSS of 100. In all reality putting that kind of info out there should not happen.. Just suggesting that as a way of gaining fitness seems a silly thing to do.
There is no education of users, just throw something out there & hope none of them spot the flaws in it or succumb to injury due to inaccurate information.
As a list please. of just my events. not one at a time side scrolling. I want to plan my week!
How do I prevent duplicates from being posted?
I dual-record, using Zwift & my Garmin so that I get all Gramin data on Garmin Connect (L/R balance, respiration rate & a few other things). I delete the Garmin activity on Strava & keep the Zwift ride.
Now, both rides are reported to & show on the ZCA. Yesterday, I had to go back & delete every duplicate Zwift ride that had uploaded retroactively.
Is there a way to prevent duplicate rides from my Garmin from uploading to Zwift, or do I just need to delete those as I do on Strava?
Thanks
Not at this time but they did mention it is in the works for the near future. For now you will need to manually delete the duplicates from zwift companion.
It sure looks like this feature is, at best, beta, and yet Zwift forced it on all customers.
I would love to see their use-cases and test plans for this (among other) features, it really looks like they have a small fairway that they test to, and ignore all other use-cases until “we” start to use/abuse a feature.
New here?
