    Handcycle specific workout doing hill sprints in preparation for Ironman season. This handcycle workout is something we do on a regular basis. Sprinting up the hill with hand bike in a low cadence gear generating lots of torque helps to build strength on the hand bike especially for the hill climbs.
    Getting fit in a wheelchair can be challenging but easy if you have access to a handcycle and some steep hills to train on. Wheelchair fitness needs to be fun and unique to improvise and build fitness in a wheelchair. This is all made easy with a handcycle and some hills in your area. Getting fit and also staying fit is very important when in a wheelchair for your health and keeping a healthy immune system throughout your life in general.
    Handcycle hill sprints are an essential workout for Ironman preparation. In coming videos, we can focus more on hand bike workouts and the specifics thereof.

    This idea of a bike where you lay down completely could also be helpful for someone with orthostatic intolerance (inability to maintain vitals standing/sitting up). I’ve seen recumbent bikes but this is even more recumbent.

    Can you make a video about your nutrition during training periods (what you eat in a day sort of deal)?
    About how many miles do you aim to do during a training ride?
    Great content! I just rolled over 500 miles on my new Force Rx and it has been life changing :)

    Wow, hill climbing with hands must be so hard. The hands must be really resistent and strong.

    Impressive! You look for hills & I try to avoid them! 😉 No, actually I can’t where I live... either way I go from my house, I got a hill to go up when I come home. Tonight a bear crossed the road in front of me while on a bike ride. 2nd time this summer! It didn’t even make me go any faster!

      Alwyn Uys Haha. Even if the bear crossed in FRONT of you?! 😁 We have black bears so really the only concern is if you get between a mamma & her cubs. The biggest problem they cause is getting into people’s garbage & bird feeders! 🤣They are actually quite scaredy cats!

    I felt that hill! I recently started exercising again and still find that I'm so weak at endurance training. Gonna work on finding the best pre-workout drink for me. Do you take anything post-workout for recovery? Got any races coming up soon? How is SA doing with opening things up?
