I've never really understood this as a method of training for climbs. Do you normally climb at a low cadence?

High power at high cadence ftw (and enjoy your knees in your old age)

Easier to focus on developing power at low rpm? Maybe. Gives you time to focus on getting the muscle chains firing correctly.
As much as the idea of high power at high cadence sounds great, from my own perspective its mostly one or the other at the moment. (although for me low cadence is ~80rpm)

Having read a bit more into it this morning (quiet here at work for once) it seems to be a 'might work for some' deal.

I used to do it on the turbo sometimes, but found that it caused me to grind on the roads.

I'll continue my reading now.
