Any idea why the Nero show says TR is intervals for beginners? They didn’t really explain why. To be fair Jesse also highlighted TR does have value, but seemed like the value was considered to only be the consistency. [Chris Froome Blames New Bike Fit & Why Energy Gels Are A Rip Off | The N…

Trainerroad is /was £20 a month last time I cancelled, which factors into all this. There are only a few types of intervals sessions that anyone needs to do, they don’t change and they’re not that complicated. They just need to be scaled to % of your ftp. That isn’t worth 20 quid a month. Trainer…

I mean they’re at a far higher level in terms of competition, they’re serious athletes who ran a conti team until recently. And Jessie finished top 5 in the elite road nationals in Australia. They’re coming from a different place to most cyclists. Also, being sassy and opinionated (and wrong) to …

It was just over £17pcm last month after the pound recovered from the Liz Trust debacle. I get where you are coming from though and if pushed I’d set up a VO2max, Threshold and Endurance workouts in Garmin Connect or something but I prefer the variability of TR workout wise and not having to think …

Is there an ERG thread somewhere already? I’m wondering why ERG mode would be bad? I get it if you never ride in the real world and therefore have no idea how to regulate your power or what different zones really feel like. But I do have that ability and I still like ERG for most workouts in the win…

[image] TheBandit: We’d be here for days if we got into the ERG non ERG discussion. This certainly isn’t the location for a balanced discussion on the subject. Glad we agree that your hot take was a mistake to mention in this discussion.

[image] wik04: I’m wondering why ERG mode would be bad? Don’t worry about whether you use it or not, your body doesn’t know the difference only your mind. Just done rely on it 100% of the time come race season.

The Zwift training plans are not great (though they are quite a bit better than they were), and their a la carte workouts are absolute dogfood. Their “60 minutes to burn” workouts can be something dumb like 2x20 at sweet spot or 2x15 at threshold and holy cow giving that to someone not familiar wit…

I haven’t looked at the Zwift training plans much but recently just want a workout on there for mostly endurance with just a few interval spikes just because I’m recovery from illness and wanted to test out how a bit intensity felt. But man the a la carte workouts have so many interval intensity’…
