Findings also suggest that online exercise platforms like Zwift can lead to identity continuity & gain sequentially rather than as separate pathways. I.e., participating in Zwift can help people continue as an exerciser/cyclist but also add new identities as a β€œZwifter” & specific Zwift team member

3. These identities are facilitated by riding with others in real-time, interacting with others while riding, and chatting with others post-ride on social media platforms.

Key findings included that:

1. Zwift helped mid-life adults cope with changes and challenges associated with mid-life through the opportunity to socialise with others despite being physically alone.

2. Zwift could lead to 3 social identities.

Well done to @tobyrichstrategy.bsky.social on the publication of his first PhD study. The study explored mid-life adults experiences of social identity processes in an online exercise context (Zwift).

For my first proper post it was nice to combine passion (sometimes pain) and research interests to contribute to this article led by Matt Smith discussing how Ruben Amorim can rebuild Manchester United’s identity. #MUFC
