Hill Repeats

Hill repetitions consist of runners or cyclists pushing themselves on the hill and then descending to recover and repeating the process. This exercise strengthens legs, develops power endurance, and conditions the heart and muscles to work hard for improved heart health. A workout consists of repeating the ascents 5 to 10 times, lasting 60 seconds to minutes, with recovery intervals. Cycling hill repeats consist of sitting and standing to develop long-term power. In running, you are able to move at a faster pace on an upward slope. Incorporating hill repeats into the regimen is an excellent option to enhance the climbing capacity in racing and overall endurance.
