# cyclingCadence

A quantity sample type that represents the rate at which the user is pedaling.

## Declaration

```swift
static let cyclingCadence: HKQuantityTypeIdentifier
```

## Discussion

Discussion Cycling cadence represents the number of times the pedals turn over in the minute. The value is measured in revolutions per minute, or RPMs. These samples use counts per minute units (described in HKUnit) and measure discrete values (described in HKQuantityAggregationStyle). Cycling cadence can be automatically collected by peripherals connected to an Apple Watch during cycling workouts. Sample data may be condensed and/or coalesced by HealthKit. For more information, see Accessing condensed workout samples.
