Yoga for Cyclists complements physical training by developing strength, endurance, and flexibility essential for stability and comfort in the saddle.
The practice includes a warm-up, a classic Sun Salutation sequence, and static postures designed to strengthen the back, release tension in the quadriceps, and improve the elasticity of the hamstrings. This helps relieve muscle stiffness, increase endurance, and maintain proper posture even during long rides.
Short sessions are ideal for post-ride recovery, while longer practices provide a deeper engagement of key muscles, enhancing pedaling efficiency and reducing joint strain.
