Have been enjoying the Xert integration this week, didn't think it'd make much difference over using Xert on the phone and disabling trainer control in Zwift but it just eases the process a little, no Xert smart stuff but that's fine
I'm interested to see how these training platforms leverage this Zwift Link API integration. With TrainerRoad no longer having to offer their full app with workout player for those who use this Zwift x TrainerRoad integration, should TrainerRoad then offer lower tiered yearly subscriptions? Not having to support hardware would potentially reduce a lot of support workload.
I'm assuming that the "Smart" workout features in Xert aren't available in Zwift once you send the workout across? As in - The MPA and XSS based workouts which change the interval length if you go too hard or too easy fall away, and you just have a power profile to follow based on your FTP?
You’d assume correctly. SMART intervals only available via PC..no big deal - I’ve been doing the workouts from Xert to zwift last few weeks and the integration is just easier
Thanks Shane. Do your sources have any information on integration with Garmin Coach? So far my foray into the Garmin ecosystem has been dismal...Garmin workouts not able to import into Zwift and communicate back to Garmin. I've already expressed my exasperation with Garmin's convoluted interface. Seeing if there is a way to avoid yet another subscription. 😅
Good question! I'll make some enquiries on this one. It'd be good to see Garmin integrate their free* coaching platform into Zwift as other platforms are currently doing.
my 1 gripe, i always look at the minimap but the gradient needs to have a decimal so its the same like the enlarged gradient that pops up. If you are doing a workout without erg, its not accurate enough.
Been riding Zwift since February of 2015. Only level 25. Used to ride it a lot but going to start riding more since it’s winter and I got a new kickr core.
two questions, seems i 'm on streak week 50 , and i guess you are too. be interesting to see how many others are almost at the full year, and 2nd have you broken the rechargeable Wahoo HRM yet, or is it worth the money thanks
50 week streak!? Nice! 👍🏼 Wahoo Trackr HRM is still going strong. My six month reminder set at the start of that review is due just before Christmas. All indications are it’ll make the six months without issue.
im hoping the graphics improve some, i run on both my pcs i use for zwift either a radeon 6800m or 6800xtx and for whatever reason it doesnt render properly but it used to. i switched computers the minimum specs of my lowest spec computer is ryzen9 12 core 24 thread , 64GB ram and ryzen 6800m w 16BG the performance in zwift honestly sucks but both computers work great with any other game i play that doesnt use raytracing lol amdd isnt good at that
It’s to bad zwift is so expensive now. I was there when it started and dropped them after the last rate hike. There are to many issues they just ignore. Like why on my Mac mini/Apple TV/MacBook Pro don’t I get full resolution and details? This has been an issue for many years. What don’t they have different membership levels? I just ride for fitness. I don’t need the full featured game. I would pay $10/month. No more. If I choose to race did they fix the problem with what I see not being what’s happening on the server? I ride IV now.
That email signup UI is SO BAD. Text changing from dark grey to black with no other differentiation between "on" and "off" states is an incredible failure in design.
Awfully quiet about the IndieVelo changes. If I didn't know better @Shane, it almost feels as if you're on the Zwift payroll. C'mon mate; spread the love a little. Competition is always good for the consumer.
The mind boggles at Zwift's inability to get the minimap right. The left-to-right moving position pin will always be confusing - especially on unplanned routes. Meanwhile, the hill profile shown in the new centre HUD is perfect: The current position pin remains stationary and the terrain scrolls right-to-left. Did the two development teams never talk? 👍for the centre HUD terrain display. 👎👎👎 for the "new" and still horrible minimap.
My regular milking of the popularity of Zwift content on TH-cam. Views = money. Apparently paid promo videos requires creators to drive 90mph in a school zone this week. 🤷♂️😉 (it would have been a good opportunity for a Join paid spot though… it wasn’t though)

Super happy to have Join integration now.
I’ve been off of Zwift for 2 years but I’m curious to get back in. Fingers crossed that there is enough new content to make it interesting again. 🤞
thanks for the coverage @shane miller 💪🐆
Considering the tight integration with wahoo, I’m surprised they don’t sync wahoo SYSTM

Depends on the workout to me. For endurance work out it's great, but for spiky work outs I find the SMART featrues better.
zwift hit the gas with the updates after the TrainingPeaks announcement 🤣🤣🤣🤣
The cross syncing is great. More and more reasons to dump strava.
I wish this was available when I raced. Definitely is a game changer.
Nice shirt Shane👌
trainer road integration would be great for both platforms.

It's me! Hi. I'm the bell guy; it's me.
NICE! NICE! NICE! NICE! NICE! NICE! NICE! NICE! NICE! NICE! NICE! NICE! NICE! NICE! NICE! NICE! NICE! NICE! NICE! NICE! NICE! NICE! NICE! NICE! NICE! NICE! NICE! NICE! NICE! NICE! NICE! NICE! NICE!

Come on Trainerroad let’s flip the switch
Finally we can track down the bell ringing bandit
Shouldn’t the minimap route progress be from right to left in Yumezi?
Hi Shane. I noticed with this update 1.78 I lost the benefit of garage sorting from 1.77 on iPad and ATV.
Same for me on iPhone too

Probably better to use Xert for that and let it control resistance. For endurance rides, the integration should work great.

PLEASE make them show the CADENCE in the workouts...its alwasy annoying to start one for "recovery" and then end up with leg-crushing 110 rpm
This.

Wish I could send over from TrainerDay
Where can I get that Cervelo shirt?
Adelaide at the Tour Down Under!
two questions, seems i 'm on streak week 50 , and i guess you are too. be interesting to see how many others are almost at the full year, and 2nd have you broken the rechargeable Wahoo HRM yet, or is it worth the money

@gplama my v2 tickr experience was dismal so a long term review of the rechargeable one would be cool after a year or something?
Any rumours about Garmin connect doing workout sync?
That would be great!!
Thank you for answering my U-turn question. Much appreciated. You are the best.
Did you noticed that with this patch there is also new routes badges like "London Flat" in London or "Petite Douleur" in France ?
I didn’t notice. I’ll do some digging!! Thanks for the heads up.
This video makes me miss "Todays Plan". So sad that platform is gone.
I want my Sinbad hat... JINGLE ALL THE WAYYYYYYYYYY!!!
Sinbad hat lmao... Zwift should have paid cosmetics like online games do instead of raising subscription prices!

Thanks for the mention, @Shane Miller! 🚵🔥
Where's my hat?!?!?!?
Not keen on the emoji's.
You need some chill & happiness in your life 😂
Off-topic but does anyone know if you can have two avatars on one Zwift account. (husband and wife)
Not possible.
Yippie (~˘▾˘)~
Believe it or not, this training peaks update is going to be HUGE for Zwift
Could you please tell us the origin of your name?
Mywoosh FTW ! Haven’t once looked back …
Workout sync 💌
