Intervals in a spin program can include:
  1. Alternating ascending and descending a ‘hill’.
  2. Alternating a high cadence spin period with a slower cadence recovery period.
  3. Alternating a long seated period with high resistance with a short period of light resistance.
  4. Any of the above.
Explanation
Answer: D - Intervals in a spin program can include any of the items on this list. Intervals describe the alternating of a period of effort with a period of rest, such that the period of effort stimulates the heart rate. Intervals may be designed to utilize sprints, climbs, or even longer periods of seated spinning against resistance, as long as there is a structured repetition of effort and rest. Different types of intervals also contribute to different fitness objectives.
