    I stopped pulling up and it did 3 things for me: increased my speed, reduced fatigue, and reduced pain. I also noticed it worked out more of my muscles so I have gained more time in the past month of training!

    According to serious studies pulling up the pedal (round pedaling) is less efficient than piston strokes plus more related to injuries

    I dont think pullin up is good, but i saw that making my pedal weight less by pulling leg up make great difference. You pull up only by amount to not resist other leg, no to pull the pedal and put force into whole system

      @arzi2054 that's the key, you do not pull up but each leg is self driven.

    It seems to me that it's worth doing it for climbing, you can just recover during the descent. That way you can keep more momentum so you don't really waste energy.

      He means to say 'you got 2 feet, use 2 feet.' each stride is 2 stroke, 1 is power, the other is rest.

    Technically speaking, you aren't ever doing a true isometric while cycling because an isometric means that essentially no movement is happening. But in general you're right. Trying to "pull up" on the pedals makes no sense biomechanically due to the rest threshold your muscles need anyway. Anyone who says otherwise clearly has no clue on physiology and is just basing their theories off of old-school techniques, which have since been disproven.

      there are completely different muscles being used. there is absolutely a rest phase going round and round.

      Basically, unless you have a really jarred pedalling technique you will naturally find the optimum for you. So don't try too hard to optimise your pedalling technique.

    I would agree for endurance long races. But if your in an all out sprint I am sure your using every muscle you can to get power down.

    Then why wear clipless pedal?

    • @apair4002
      @apair4002 Місяць тому +2

      Clipless pedal have another huge benefit in hi rpm pedaling for at least at 80rpm especially when you are fatigue, increase efficiency & save energy. Obviously clipless pedal for cycling sport.
      Do we pedaling at hilly road only? Please thinking critically.
