Professional rider to teach you how to improve your pedaling frequency

In an interview, when asked professional rider: Craig Griffin (former USA Cycling coach) how to maximize pedaling efficiency, he said the following words.
      
Tip: Genetic basically determines how fast you are able to ride, but good skills can make you maximize your talents. tour de france jerseys If you can sit comfortably in the car, keeping 120rpm speed, you will not be in the game to get rid of. Use a lower gear ratio, and high speed riding, allowing you to decide the outcome of the thigh in a critical moment feel relaxed.

Smooth, high speed pedaling, like professional cycling as a key driver. You can pass this point to identify an experienced rider. They sat in the seat, rock solid upper body motionless, while their legs like a piston as high-speed operation. No extra action, no shaking, like a good performance of the engine, continuously produce power.
      
The high speed is a professional rider naturally come through practice. Use a smaller gear ratio, so that your heart rate will not exceed 80% of maximum heart rate.
    
(1) Put your seat lower 2-3mm, in order to reduce the body to produce at high speeds tend to bounce (Annotation: Many people may have this feeling, at high speeds, the body up and down, as if sitting on a spring ). Can later be gradually adjust the seat back to the correct height.
    
(2) to focus on the driving pedal pedaling over the lowest point in order to eliminate dead spots. (Annotation: My personal feeling is that the use of self-locking to be more focused on the horizontal force, namely, "drag, pull," rather than the vertical direction of the "step, to mention")
    
(3) using a stopwatch with a cadence (Annotation: eg Sigma BC1600) do for the physiological feedback, a gradual increase speed, this speed every time you want to be able to comfortably ride the next five minutes.
    
(4) Take a few minutes each rider pedaling with a high speed, the last 5 minutes of warm-up time is the best time.
