Hi,
On the really steep stuff I find it easier to lift my self off the ground with my shoulders & elbows (if that makes sense)? rather than purely pushing with my feet and legs.
is this a technique anyone else uses or am I just strange?

My island is very nice
it does read a little strange, I mean I've been jolting my upper body upwards at the same time as a little push with my legs. just on the really steap stair like climbs.
Levitation techniques can be really effective. I have also experimented with helium filled bum bags.
Tao begets one. One begets two. Two begets all things.
Trying to plod up hills every day slightly faster than the day before
I do have a problem with my legs...they're just not as stong and fast as I'd hoped for
Im having that issue at the moment but any ascent is good ascent as long as the technique is right so even though in training my uphill has been at a snails pace it means in races its started to mix with my usual straggly but quite fast style with a more efficient one, if you get my drift
