Thanks
When I started out, displaying real-time cadence was a big benefit because it helped me to train my legs to spin at a higher cadence than what seemed natural at first. This has paid big dividends for me. Start with targeting a smooth 90rpm and then you can work at varying the muscle recruitment in different situations.
