Answer: D- Participants should remove all resistance from the flywheel under no circumstances. Even during warm up, cool down, and recovery sections, participants should maintain a low resistance on the flywheel. Some resistance is necessary to allow a smooth pedal stroke ad prevent the pedals ‘snapping’ which can cause injury. If a participant is finding a section too difficult, they may reduce resistance or cadence, but there should always be a resistance comparable to gentle pedaling on a flat road as a minimum.
