OldTryGuy, which is the 1 cog, the 2 cog, etc.? Is the 1 cog the largest sprocket in the back? (I suppose that I'll need to change my cassette if I follow this routine. From my current 12-30 to something tighter. Tightest I have right now is an 11-27, which I can flip back and forth to a 12-27, (adding either the 11 or the 16).)

#1 is the largest. We would be starting with a 23 max then going to the 11 or 12 and back. In your case you could just start lower on the cassette with fewer repeats.
