Yoga for cyclists combines exercises for hip mobility, leg flexibility and core strength. A stable core is important for a comfortable riding position, while mobile hip joints allow your legs to move as you pedal. Strengthening poses alternate with stretches for your legs and back.
This 60-minute class includes “Standing One-Legged Frog Pose with Backbend”, “Deep Low Lunge 2” and “Low Lunge with Hands on Thigh”. You'll finish by lying down to rest.
Choose the hour-long class when you'd like a change from your usual training routine.
Adjust the effort to the length and intensity of your rides. Do not stretch tired muscles through pain, and let how you feel guide you rather than the depth of the pose shown in the video.
