I came back to cycling after being away for forty years simply because it was easier to cycle than drive my van along North Devon's country lanes. You can't get very far in this neck of woods without going up a hill, so if I couldn't cycle up a hill I'd walk luckily as I've got stronger I'am cycling up more than I'am walking, perseverance is the key, never give up.

I have been experimenting with short climbs lately. I noticed that I am more efficient on many of those when I am seated. With the climbs being short, I think that the aero penalty from standing up may larger than the additional power I am putting down standing up. Of course, every climb is different. I have to figure out which one is better standing and which one is better seated.

@marcellobittencourt1836 Жыл бұрын

I'm a heavy boy-literally overweight. I'm 170 cm tall and weigh about 90 kg. Not only that, but I've been practicing for 2 years now, 1 of it only using a road bike. My bike's easiest ratio is 39/28, and this makes me suffer like hell. If the gradient is over 6%, I'm already in my first gear out of the saddle. I don't seem to be able to control my efforts, as I'm basically always topping out my HR. All I can do is climb really slowly at a slow cadence and try to pedal sitting down as far as I'm able. For context, I live in Brazil, and bike parts here cost more than I make in a week, so changing my cassette, rear derailleur and chain ring is out of the question for now. I'd spend my month's salary on that, and I don't think my landlord would be so happy about it haha Though I really struggle to keep up the pace in climbing, my skills and speed on average are improving. I know I'll never be a climber, but I'm pretty sure I'll be satisfied with this skill of mine someday.

Find a hill you like and go up and down as many times as you can ! ( maybe a hill that is fairly steep but only takes 1 to 2 mins ) and go back at least twice a week and keep repeating ! After few weeks try and do your quickest climb ! Try going as fast as you can on first attempt and then 80% effort on second attempt

Sorry that the practice of bicycle is so expensive for you ...the answer of your problem lays in your first sentence : overweight ! i hope you are young enough to be able to lose weight quite naturally and easily ...because with ten kgs less you should ride up the same hills with a lot of margin and ten more kgs , you should simply fly.

@Xhadp Жыл бұрын

For me, Gearing gearing gearing. I really do not know why at least a 32t rear cassette is standard on bikes nowadays, allows you to get more options for cadences. Just baffles me, Even if you are stuck with a 28t you are going to be in a world of hurt if you do travel to a hill with your bike. The new summit live climb features on bike head units play a role. It allows me to properly assess hills and their gradients before I get to them. It lets me see that oh that is a nasty 12% section up ahead or oh this is a steady 3% for a long while. Balance is shit for me so I've never jumped out of the saddle on the hills in my area. But something I am working towards!

Good tipps with the right pacing beeing the most important but still you are just scratching the surface with respect to pedaling technique among other things. There is lots left for another video. For instance, if you you run out of gears to turn the pedal at an efficient frequency, concentrate on a round, slow motion and synchronize your breath with it. You can pedal on enormously slow rpm that way, just don't panic, go easy on muscles, heart-rate, body-temperature and relax. The relaxed state of mind can't be overstressed to master steep long climbs. You may be slow but that's ok as long as you keep going.

Complicated? Fairly basic stuff. As for simply doing it more often and let your body adjust things for you, not sure why you wouldn’t want to approach it with some advanced knowledge first. Someone doesn’t learn to drive a car by being thrown the keys and told “get out there, drive about, you’ll figure it out”. Indeed almost nothing is better through learning from experience than learning from people who know more/better than you do. Like, ahem, mum and dad, school and university. In hill climbing this will ensure people don’t give up, don’t get frustrated or embarrassed and don’t get injured. But you crack on. Bet you also build IKEA furniture without looking at the instructions….you’ll figure it out. 🤔😜
