I am sure there is an answer to this on the forums and I have read through them but have not been able to find an answer. I am wondering if it is possible so create a workout that simulates hill riding.
For example. 3 minutes at 3% grade into 1 minute at 5% grade into 2 minutes at 0% grade.
I understand that I can create slope in the workout creator. I did this, but my problem was that when it shifted the gradients/slopes it was so. abrupt that it basically locked up the trainer. I am using a Wahoo Kickr Core. I am using the TrainerDay App. Once thing I did that may have caused it is I have assimo pedals and I had those set as the power/cadence.
Yes, the only problem is without the visual stimulation of hills it’s not exactly the same but you can put an FTP% as a visual reference so you know what you are trying to target. FTP% does not do anything except show visual target numbers
Alex, thank you. I am fine not have a ftp other than a number, but I should feel it build resistance so I can either shift gears or get out of the saddle to overcome the new “hill”. Thoughts on why it was so abrupt that it basically locked the trainer?
Oh sorry, I just read the first part of your message. If you are in a big gear, 1% change can be a lot. You can set it in settings to like a .2% increase. But I can say we just launched a big ble update a couple days ago and I see some slope problems and it’s possible this is related. We have a new version that should be coming tomorrow or for sure the next day that might be the solution.
