What energy zones can be targeted during a seated climb?

The correct choice is centered around the various energy zones that can be effectively targeted during a seated climb. In a seated climb, the primary focus is on building strength and endurance. The seated position allows the rider to engage larger muscle groups effectively, enabling them to push through resistance and enhance their muscular endurance.

During a seated climb, the energy zone of endurance comes into play as the rider maintains a steady effort over a longer duration, which helps improve cardiovascular fitness and stamina. Additionally, strength is a key component, as the resistance challenges the muscles, promoting hypertrophy and increasing power output.

While intervals and race day efforts are not typically associated directly with a seated climb, the combination of strength and endurance training prepares the rider for these high-intensity efforts. This structured approach within the seated position allows for a focused development of the necessary physiological adaptations, making this choice the most comprehensive in terms of energy zones targeted during such workouts.
