Getting better at climbing hills?
So I just started biking this month and I realized that I suck at going up hills.
What's a good way to get better? Do you bike and also work out legs at the gym? This is also my first time with clipless so I tend to mash downwards with one leg at a time and don't have a good smooth circular pedaling motion yet with going down with one while pulling up with the other...
When should you get your butt off the seat? If I get to a steep hill with little momentum, I expend all my energy getting to the top and just have almost nothing left after I get over. Does it just come slowly over time?
