I have muscle imbalances and tight tendons from being hit by a car many years ago. I started doing this video every morning, more or less, about 7 months ago. At the time i couldn't bend over and touch my toes and my body was so twisted that my calves looked like they belonged to 2 different people! I missed many days here and there but just kept coming back, starting over, and now i can touch the tops of my hands to the ground when trying to touch my toes. The second part of the dynamic forward fold has helped my open up my shoulder and chest, one of my biggest problem areas. This 5 minute video sparked a change I had been avoiding for 15+ years. Thank you for making it easy to start. I am moving on to the 10 minute warm up, and will begin mixing in some of your other videos. Thank you for creating this video. It was exactly what I needed.
That's incredible @toddmallin3868! So happy to hear it has been helpful. If you're ever looking for a full-fledged platform to help you get and stay in shape, Dynamic Cyclist has that ready for you! new.dynamiccyclist.com/
I’m on a stationary bike at home. This the first video I came across of yours and it made me realise I wasn’t using my bike properly. This has made my unfit body able to do resistance 6 for more than 30secs! You’re so easy to follow and make fitness a positive experience and not a hinderance. Thanks so much!
I like the 10min version. The one on the top of the list. Began only doing it at races. Now I do it before any activity which means pretty much every day! 😊
Interesting note! It definitely depends what type of stretching you do. If you need a training companion to your riding, check out our full platform! www.dynamiccyclist.com
If it does ease back pain it will convert into: hand, wrist (can see asymmetric wrist mobility in your movements so there must be an injury history there, left side), elbows, shoulders, neck. You could not avoid hand numbness and tingling with that forward capitulation. As well, it puts a shearing force on your pelvic floor and slides you down the nose where there is increased pudendal nerve and blood vessel pressure and a loss of lateral support for your back. Qualified bike fit needed. There are all kinds of experts out there in their own fields, like you in yours, who would love to share their capabilities. We are in NY. Don't know where you are located. Not meant critically at all, just constructive observation/feedback. Thanks for the video.
Very nice warmups. Thank you! Wondering about pre warmups . After you wake up and get out of bed before your ride what/how much should you eat or drink? How long to wait before warming up? What about cool downs after a ride? Nutrition in general and after a ride? Maybe these questions are off topic…

Please add a 5 minute post ride routine.
This is a great video. Can you please make one for a cool down? ❤
This video was really great, I love how she explained where to be focusing and what the strechs are doing. Great job keep it up!

What fixed me completely was 100% stopping all stretching completely before hopping on the bike. 1mile warm up then hammer down.
