Bonjour Sue ! I completely how our formulation was confusing here. What I meant was "avoir du mal à" never mean "to struggle" in the sense of "fight". Thanks to you, I've now clarified this sentence and added a counter example as well. As for the sentence you mentioned, you would indeed say: "J'ai du mal à monter la colline." Merci et à bientôt !
