    The best advice I ever got was: take a bike that is one size below what they recommend, and when at your fastest endurance speed, make sure your elbows are bent 90°, not straight. I rode a rental bike based on this advice and it was perfect. Back home, I bought a bike that fits my measurements, and now I have this neck pain on every ride and learnt to accept it like she said. Shortening the headset helped a little bit, but it's still nowhere near that rental bike. Stupidly enough, I made the same mistake for my mountainbike. So never overestimate your size, boys.

    Great video. I have left this in my play later for way too long now.
    I am recovering from cycling too much in my youth, I suffer from tight quadriceps rotating my pelvis and putting stress on my hamstring. Not only do I want to increase the strength of the muscles I never used on my bike, but I also want to increase my general flexibility. How would these exercises be incorporated into a normal strength training programme?

  • @z1522
    @z1522 3 роки тому +1

    Riding position is determined by the three contact points: foot/pedal engagement, saddle height and setback, and hands on bars. Proper fit balances and aligns the skeleton and muscles optimally, and fatigue/soreness becomes primarily a function of fitness. Poor fit cannot be overcome by merely "thinking" into an altered position - the body is going to return to its balanced best options given the fixed contact points, and they are what must be adjusted to improve comfort, minimize chronic aches, and optimize overall performance with ability to ride distances without pain. Many pros ride without even gloves - the "need" for padding is the first tip that the fit is wrong(except for saddles, where a bit of mileage is unfortunately needed to re-condition tender early season butts).

    fantastic video! Just one question about the streching, for many cyclist maybe the extension is lacking or atleast it will improve everydaylife to get that thoratic extension. For newer cyclists the lack of flexion is the problem and that wasnt adressed, whats the thinking there?

    Wish I saw this earlier :( I've been doing spin for the past 5 weeks and LOVE IT. But my bike height was wrong, and I've been trying to get it right, and I got some new numbers to work with, but my right knee is swollen and my left knee is a bit too. They are both irritated to say the least. I also strength train, but I know it wasn't from that. I am taking a week break rn...

    I have shoulder discomfort when riding my gravel bike. I changed my stem to a shorter and angled one to bring me closer to the handler bar. It didn't help so I tried adjusting my saddle a bit back, so far so good this morning. lets see this afternoon on my way home.

    • @suburbia2050
      @suburbia2050 3 роки тому

      Yes it's your core muscles that need to hold your position not your hands. Saddle back will give you more balance for your core to hold. But not so far back that you have to stretch to reach the bars of course!

  • @brucewmclaughlin9072
    @brucewmclaughlin9072 Рік тому

    :5:02 look at the position? This is typical of a lot of diamond frame riders today. regardless of what ,you do when riding the drop bars you are going to have to hold your head up to see the road and not your front tire. You are also holding your body weight on your arms /shoulders and that front tire is transmitting vibration into the handlebars you are holding.
    Due to nerve damage in both hands which i attribute to riding rock hard tires on a diamond frame bike for 37+ years , I now ride a far superior comfort bike . A Bacchetta Giro A20 touring recumbent . No holding the head up , I am seated in , not on , a full mesh seat, and I have aerodynamics on my side as the feet are out front not dangling in the wind as a diamond frame puts them. Knee pain happens if my seat goes out of adjustment too close or too far away from the pedals . Easily corrected without any expensive bike fit. .There is a very good reason the UCI banned recumbents from racing . I like speed and a diamond frame bike will give me speed. I also like comfort with my speed and a diamond frame bike just does not give both .

    Please help me!! I’m 171cm... and I have a size 53 BMC rm01 with a 110 stem and a 75 reach handlebar... I ordered a Integrated handlebar and stem which has 100mm stem and a 85mm reach... I don’t know if the handlebar reach is important... but I’m starting to regret... because I think the bike is a little too big for me and I have a big stem there
    Edit: I probably should mention that I am 15 years old... and I have a spine problem( which I don’t know the name), but essentially my back looks like a Snake

  • @taufikabidin412

    Because 1. UCI ban recumbents, so there are many events that you will miss 2. Many refuse to ride recumbents 2. The entry price for Recumbents are high . The problem is on the bike. The bike design isn't ergonomic

  • @Ey_up
    @Ey_up 5 років тому

    My comments are a little more pointed towards general principles:
    If you feel PAIN while cycling, then see a physiotherapist or get a bike fit.
    If you have niggles, then get into the gym with an experienced trainer and get yourself sorted out, maybe?
    In 14 years of sport performance gym experience, it's taken almost that long to get endurance athletes in the gym because they keep taking advice from ill-informed coaches and others. Haha!
    Endurance cycling- in my experience- is the last bastion of resistance to making reasonable (relative) strength gains and not just being weak and susceptible to injury.
    One of my athletes,
    competing in the World Cross Country Championship at the end of the month; bodyweight 53kg, she can back squat/deadlift/hip thrust around 55/60/70kg for reps and she's not without niggles. Properly planned, that'll sort your back and hips out- plus a bike fit but being an endurance athlete is walking a tightrope between training and injury- it's the nature of the beast. If you're highly competitive, then you'll never NOT have ongoing injuries/niggles.
    I would see a physiotherapist for rehab advice but not training.
    I feel a website coming on...

      sbishop1 Or get 2 bikes, your main one to race on and train on a normal 14 -16 kg road bike. This will allow for a short boost while riding your main bike after. If you train on your 6.8 kg bike that is all the weight resistance you get, adding 7 kilos on top of you will make a severe impact on performance. Train on heavy race on light.
