Hey guys.

New to Zwift and haven’t even ridden yet as waiting for Campy freehub.

What I was wondering is with the 12 week ftp booster (for example) would you increase your ftp input week on week as you’d just be repeating the workout otherwise. I’ve read about checking every 4-6 weeks but it seems to me you’d be doing the same workout for 6 weeks doing that.

I’m thinking along the lines of progressive overload as per a weight lifting program.

And if you would, by how much. I don’t even know my ftp but let’s say it’s 200. Would I increase maybe by 5 a week and see how I go.

Your FTP will automatically update within Zwift if you put out more power over a 20 minute period.

If you use the Zwift Companion App along with the Zwift app you can manually increase your FTP bias by as much as 10% during the ride if you feel it is too easy.
