What to expect
Turn it up a notch. Then one more.
Climb trades speed for load. Each hill starts seated at a cadence around 70, then adds resistance every verse until you're out of the saddle for the last chorus. The music is slower and heavier, so every pedal stroke lands on the beat.
How a ride is built
A five-minute warm-up with two short sprints
Four long hills of four to six minutes each
Two-minute recoveries in Zone 1 between hills
A final summit song in Zone 4, then a cool-down
About a third of the ride sits in Zone 4. If you're new to Climb, ride the hills seated and add resistance in smaller turns.
Good for
