spinning?
Since I began cycling I was spinning.. I don't really like the resistance so I tend to use the lighter gears.. I guess it was my style. I didn't even knew then about spinning.. but I was spinning.. If I remember it right I maintained my cadence to about 75-80rpm then..
Now, I maintain it between 90-100rpm.. Sometimes on climbs, my cadence drops to about 70rpm. When it touches the 65rpm mark when I'm really tired, I tell myself to turn back or to stop for a rest.
On flats, maintain 80-90rpm for starters. And gradually go up to 95rpm..
