What is a "standing climb"?
A standing climb in cycling is when a rider rises out of the saddle to pedal while climbing a hill or incline. This position allows the rider to apply more force and leverage to the pedals, using their body weight to help power the bike uphill. Standing climbs are commonly used when the incline becomes steeper or when more effort is needed to maintain speed.
