1 Kilo Hill Repeat Intervals

Anaerobic Power training intervals. 1 kilo (.6 miles) Hill repeats. Power climbing is an important part of MTB racing. Being able to recover after a hard climbing effort is even more important. These intervals train both climbing power but also address recovery and repeatability. This is "race pace" training and is HARD work. Grade should steady but not to STEEP. Around 7-8 % (middle ring, middle cog), fire roads and DBL track trails are great for this workout.
