Maybe he just wants to see how tall of a gear he can push up the hill?
ha ha.
well if one writes fiction, the characters can be as manly as
the author likes..
still i doubt that is what he meant, i just think he
mistook high for low.
anyway, i emailed the author, i will report his answer if he answers.

My guess it that he wasn't shifting into ever higher gears during a
single climb but that eventually through addtional conditioning he was
able to now pedal a taller gear on hills that had previously had him
grabbing for the granny.
