Zwift Training Plan
Does anyone have any training plans in Zwift they really like?
I looked at some today and were either too short, not very challenging, or too long. I’m looking for a plan that’s pretty challenging with workouts in the 45-60 min ballpark.

I did Zwift's 60 minute 4 week climb plan when I started. It was a good entry, I learned a lot of the lingo and got stronger.
All the training blocks I've done have a similar weekly cadence, something like 3 days of interval training (about 45 minute workouts), rest day, 2 days of long easy riding (2-3 hours), rest day.

Zwift is not great for structured training plans. They are basically all short term generic plans and not very well thought out. You would be better off getting a decent plan from the likes of TrainerRoad and importing the sessions into Zwift.

The workouts are tuned to your ability based on FTP and HR. The algorithms are very accurate IMO, the workouts are hard enough that I feel like quitting but not so hard I have to quit.
