My philosophy as an only moderately fit mid fifties cyclist is to drop down to the lowest gear available if necessary to get up a hill with minimal exertion. I don't worry if I get overtaken by a one legged octagenarian jogger on the way up. Every hill that goes up tends to have another side after you reach the top that goes down again and you can salute that old codger as you overtake them again at 50 or 60 kmh with the help of gravity and momentum. 👍

Always have water when you have a hilll. LOL I prefer seated with comfortable cadence.

Years ago I used to have a bike that had bar ends used for climbing and i always grabbed the bar ends and stood up and pedaled I was more tired doing it that way so now with my current bike I climb seated and don’t be so tired

I picked it up at a local diy store. It’s not in stock anymore.
