I am doing the workouts listed, but don't really understand the whole lower cadence or specific cadence drills versus just whatever you're comfortable with.

Anyone have any reasoning behind "75rpm for 5min, 80rpm for 5min, 85rpm for 5min" versus "whatever for 15min". I don't get it.
I did the Build Me Up plan earlier this fall and it had a lot of different cadence targets that I found a little annoying at first, mostly because I have a dumb trainer so I have to do a lot of shifting to hit the power and cadence. After awhile I decided that the most important thing was to hit the power target, if I could do cadence too then great, but no biggie if not.
