# Hill Repeats Planning

Plan hill repeats by choosing the right hill. Use GPX analysis to identify grade %, climb length, and repeat-friendly segments.

The "right" hill depends on your workout: short steep power, longer steady strength, or controlled downhill practice.

- Find repeatable climbs
- Use grade % and climb length
- Plan safer downhill segments
