Ready to turn racing into a weekly habit? You’re in the right place. Don’t forget, you can track your overall position in the series week by week here: www.zwiftpower.comOpens a new window.
WHAT IS CATEGORY ENFORCEMENT?
Category enforcement prevents Zwifters from entering a category for which they are not eligible. Our goal is to increase fairness in racing. Find more information about it here.
HOW DOES IT WORK?
Zwift checks a racer's past performance using VO2max, MAP value, and FTP to determine their race category. Racers can join a category at or above their category. For example, if you are in the "C" category, you can race in C, B, or A category. But you can’t race in the D category.

Please note: For your results to show up in ZwiftPower, you must use a heart rate monitor (HRM) and be riding on a smart trainer, smart bike, or using a power meter.
