![]() Secondly, understand that watts per kilogram (w/kg), or power to weight ratio, is your current wattage (the power you’re putting into the pedals) divided by your body weight in kilograms.Įxample: I weigh 84kg, so if I’m putting out 300 watts my w/kg is 300/84=3.57 There are several answers to this question, but first make sure you understand how Zwift is calculating your speed. One common question people ask, especially in race situations, is “Why am I getting beat by people who are putting out lower watts per kilogram?” ![]() Many have little or no experience riding with power–that is, measuring wattage output and understanding how watts affect speed in solo and group ride situations.įortunately, Zwift behaves very much like the real world in terms of physics, so any understanding you may have of outdoor cycling physics will translate to Zwift, and any additional understanding you may gain from Zwifting will transfer outside. With the Northern Hemisphere winter in full force, we’re seeing lots of new Zwifters on course.
