Interesting blog POD. I am a turbo hater too and haven't tried zwift yet, you almost have me convinced. I wont be spending any money on it in the near future but I am intrigued enough to be thinking about it.

IBR. Was going to do 8 but felt OK so decided to do another mile, then realised I might as well round up to 10. Best crack on with work seeing as I've accidentally had an extended lunch break :-)

BC - it just depends on what you need , for years I have been happy with just numbers and only COVID got me here. However as I said, I now have an entire social life and friends I ride with some of whom I will never meet

EP - sessions are sessions

They would work just looking at a garmin and listening to tunes and would work battering through Watopia on ZWIFT listening to tunes.

Zwift is handy if you need to do say a 5 min effort with X recovery in that you can use one of the looped circuits so repeat conditions it is in theory the same result as 5 mins in gear 6 on your bike.

The difference to ZWIFT 5 mins and just doing it is this

When you train isolated it really is you and the box

Do the session on ZWIFT and a 5 min effort suddenly sees you dig a little deeper as some random person who has no idea you have targetted them becomes your obsessions to chase down
