Yes.

Also yes.
Just wondered if there's any benefits/implications?
The ability to produce power at a range of different cadence is the benefit.

The stronger guys from my club are doing low cadence sessions as part of their winter turbo training.
Proper low. 50rpm low.
I think the idea is to build leg strength. Seems a bit extreme.
I'm doing variations more like yours. I need to work on cadence, and hopefully the seated low stuff will help me stay seated longer when climing. Mostly I just get bored.

@BeaconJon
Has anyone tried varying their cadence whilst interval training?
I've been breaking up the monotony of my intervals by working my way up down the block, a minute or two in each gear so my cadence might start at say 115rpm then over a 6 minute interval might end up at 70rpm for the same power.

Going from slow rpm's to high at FTP really hurts.
