Professional cyclists teach you climbing skills, please keep it safe
Long distance climbing will gradually make you tired, while short distance steep slopes will quickly cause you to stall, or even make it difficult for you to climb..
Steep road surfaces are generally not very good, and these pebbles or bumpy surfaces can effectively test your skills..
If the steep slope is on the race route, even Pro sometimes chooses compression discs and climbing flywheels, so don’t think you can climb with a flat gear ratio..
Although you often hear that some drivers can climb hills with a high gear ratio, it puts a lot of strain on the muscles, and you need to maintain a comfortable frequency to avoid wasting energy..
Even if the distance on steep slopes is short, even a few hundred meters, your extremely low speed may take you 5 minutes or even more to pass..
When entering a steep slope, choose a smaller gear ratio, and adjust your breathing once you encounter a slightly smaller slope during the climbing process. Even for a few seconds, you can temporarily get some rest..
If you can maintain a comfortable stepping frequency (>80rpm), then you need to maintain a sitting position, slightly bend your elbows, do not shrug, and pull the handlebar backwards and downwards. This not only provides greater traction, but also allows your front and rear wheels to tightly grip the ground..
However, when the slope becomes steeper, if the gear ratio is not enough, you can only stand and shake the car. If the surface condition is poor, you need to ensure that your center of gravity is back, above the seat cushion, to ensure smooth stepping and prevent slipping..
If it is a group of drivers passing through steep slopes, the best position is at the forefront. Because this way, your vision is better and you will have the opportunity to choose a route, which is also why everyone accelerates and stalls in front of steep slopes in the Tour of Flanders..
But not everyone can be at the front, so let go of the driver in front and keep a certain distance from him. This way, you will also have a better perspective..
If the road conditions are poor, you can reduce the tire pressure by 10-15 PSI, and road vehicles can replace tires with 25c and 28c to increase grip..
You can slightly increase your speed before climbing a steep slope, which makes it much easier for you to start climbing. I guess you don’t want to start climbing a wall like steep slope at zero speed..
In sharp turns such as hairpin turns, the slope on the outer side will be smaller, while the distance on the inner side will be shorter. You need to choose a reasonable route according to the situation at that time to retain your energy..
Performing upper limb strength training and overall functional strength training can significantly improve your performance on steep slopes, especially when you are rocking the car..
High gear ratio and low frequency climbing training is crucial in both the basic and developmental stages, and has a significant effect on improving the driver’s specialized strength..
As the slope increases, the proportion of self and bicycle gravity that you need to overcome also increases..
Being a weight loss equipment enthusiast requires a high cost, but pouring out the water from the kettle before climbing and placing unnecessary items before going out is a good way to lose weight. But the most important thing is people, the excess fat on the waist is much heavier than the water in a kettle..
When climbing steep slopes, your nerves must be highly tense, especially on a slope where you have been pulled apart..
Try to think about positive things and let past failures pass by. Don’t lower your head, maintain rhythmic breathing, and relax your body..
