    Everybody's trying to come out with something original to attract attention, views and likes. And all they do is make fools of themselves. As the great Eddy Merckx once said "Ride as much or as little, as long or as short as you feel. But ride.” That's all.

    Keep up the good work Ethan. Your future is bright! This rider is a year older than you too if I am not mistaken. (was that Hincapie?) Myself the only thing I would have done different perhaps would have been to be at a higher speed at the bottom to create a bigger gap ahead of the climb.

      But if the bikes have to heavy gearing, the power skyrockets when it gets steep.

      @mikecoglione1308 Місяць тому

      @@erlendsteren9466 The power matters the most but not having lots of it. Training is training and that's one thing. The use of power is another. In regards to OP he is correct that you don't have to ride hills to be good at them. The best is following a structured plan that is polarized mostly zone 2 with various intervals and occasional combinations of fast hilly as well as fast flat group rides. But you never have to ride a single hill to be able to produce a lot of power, its the structured training that gets you there. With regards to gearing its all about your FTP and watts/kilo. You should choose gearing appropriate to your weight, power, endurance and how much you need to pack on your bike (not everyone is racing). If anything I personally use a gravel bike with rear MTB dertailluer that ends up with 48/31 and 11-42 gearing which makes super steep climbs a lot more palatable. 20% is not easy no matter what but can do way more without burning out using this setup.

    Your tag line is misleading. Climbing does make you faster and better at climbing. There is a place for steady-state HR training and that is made easier by riding flatter routes; however, you can't get good at climbing without climbing. If you want to get good at doing the thing, you have to do the thing whether that is on the road or simulated on the trainer...preferably on the road as there are many things that the trainer will not teach you or train you for. Climbing at different intensities is also important...which I think is more of what you are talking about. It's possible to climb in any HR zone you want as long as it's not to steep and you adjust your speed/effort appropriately.

  • @JeuneCyclisteDynamique
    @JeuneCyclisteDynamique Місяць тому

    As it is often the case in cycling training, it depends. A watt is a watt, but at slower speeds and with the bike tilted backwards a few percentage points because of the gradient, the way your leg muscles fire in sequence is not the same on climbs vs. on the flat. Cycling up an incline requires constant pressure on the pedal throughout the pedal stroke, while cycling on at speed on the flat can be achieved only through pushing hard at a top of the stroke and letting inertia do the rest. You are right in saying training higher power on the flat would work to have you climb faster, but it would probably feel very different holding a given power up a mountain road vs. on your local flat loop.
