-however, i have had to walk my MTB a few times because i lacked the skills necessary to go up a huge hill, my back wheel was spinning out, and i didn't know where to place my weight. perhaps someone here can tell me how to distribute my weight going up a steep trail? |

What I was getting at was if I'm on the easy flatter section and I'm right at my threshold HR or above and then I have to stand up and bunny hop a lot while going up a steep uphill I'm not going to have the anaerobic reserve to do that without blowing up. If I "blow up" I don't have anything in reserve for technical stuff.
If I pace myself a little more on the easier section I'll have that burst available to clear the super steep stuff/jump the log/keep my rear wheel from spinning on the uphill gravel, etc.. I should have said HR or something I guess.. if you're thinking power that'd be different, but I've never used a PM on a MTB. Everyone has a limit but some of what you're talking about with spinning the rear tire has to do with bike fit. |
