Do you sit or stand going up hills?

Part of this depends on the predominant muscle fiber makeup in your glutes/thighs. If you're more slow twitch, you'll find that higher cadences are easier. Fast twitch needs lower cadences.

The best way to tell is trial and error. On a flat road, if you can maintain a high cadence for many miles, you're probably slow twitch. If you're more comfortable at a lower cadence (70-80 mph) on the flats, you probably have more fast twitch.

The point of this is that what works for one TE'er may not work for her sister!

I sit as much as possible, this seems to exhaust my legs less, and being the worst hill slug ever seen, I go for the easiest version...

Before i hurt myself i sat & stood to go uphill.

At the moment my right leg isn't 500% strong enough so i sit in the saddle. I've made myself a goal that i want my right hamstring, glute & quad 500% by Aug, sept at the latest..
