Whats with the Zwift community and the assumption that every rider needs to be coddled through group workouts, cant anyone just ride at their own pace without the need for constant encouragement and reassurance, or are we just stuck with a bunch of entitled riders who expect virtual participation trophies.
Are the Zwift group workout leaders so concerned about keeping everyones feelings intact that theyre more focused on doling out participation awards than actually pushing riders to improve, or is the Zwift platform itself so geared towards mass appeal that its sacrificed any semblance of competitiveness for the sake of inclusivity.
Do Zwift group workout riders genuinely believe that virtual cheering and superficial motivational speeches actually improve performance, or is it just a thinly veiled attempt to mask the underlying insecurity that theyre not actually getting any faster.
Can someone explain why Zwifts group workout design seems to prioritize social interaction over actual training value, and whether this is a deliberate design choice or just a side effect of trying to appeal to a broader audience.
Are the Zwift group workouts intentionally structured to avoid any semblance of honest competition, lest someones fragile ego get hurt, or is the Zwift community just so averse to conflict that its willing to sacrifice actual training benefits for the sake of virtual harmony.
