Any Zwifters out there?

I finished the Cardio Crusher yesterday. Got 1000xp bonus, so that was nice. Doubled up on the workouts with those short ones. Gave a good training effect.
 
Any appletv, laptop or tablet users want to dip their toes into a zwift PC?
I'm looking to offload mine to upgrade.
Runs ultra graphics profile (iykyk) and generally holds 60fps at 4k in Watopia.
40+ fps in Makuri

What do you think of it in ultra ? As its a completely different experience in SD vs Ultra.

I paid the $9.99 for the early access premium first run and got a load of fancy glowing wheels and shit, also early access to the MyWhooshWorld maps, they had much nicer graphics than the original maps.

Have you had a look at those maps as they are now free to everyone ?
 
But I just got the fire socks!

I think I have hit peak Zwift. I have been on it for 6 months and have had a great time but my performance hasn’t really improved that much, based on power metrics. FTP up 10W or so and that’s about it. And that’s after 6-8 hours per week on top of my usual outdoor riding.

I’m moving to intervals.icu for loading highnorth.co.uk workouts to my Wahoo head unit to control my Kickr. intervals.icu is free and the workout library is a one time payment.

Polarized training, engage!

I think you have to mix up what you're doing on zwift.

Lately I've found it too easy to just roll around in zone 2 and still have good base but struggle with zone 3-4 work.

I'm referring to the "ultra" graphics profile on zwift.
"most" PC users with a dedicated graphics processor (not "onboard" integrated graphics) get the ultra detail which allows 1440p or 4K output.

Appletv or android devices and iGPU laptops get the potato phone variant....

Wat Acko said. I don't think you've hit peak Zwift, I think you've hit peak plateau.

Or you're actually overloaded and you're not recovering properly. 6-8 hours extra is actually a shit-tonne extra.

Big gains are real easy in the first 6 months, but keep in mind the highly trained Pros are happy with a 2% increase year on year.
