Description
The first and only book of its kind to show how yoga postures can stretch and lengthen those short, tight cycling muscles and help keep your body balanced and injury-free. Yoga is fast becoming an essential performance tool for road cyclists looking to improve flexibility, core strength, balance, breathing efficiency and mental focus. Most cyclists want to ride harder for longer but the unnatural slouched posture and repetitive nature of riding takes its toll on the body. Short, tight hamstrings, hip flexors and quadriceps are easily damaged and, over time, can cause lower back and knee problems. Yoga for Cyclists is the first title to address all of these areas by adapting yoga techniques specifically for cyclists of all levels, in clear, concise chapters. A cyclist with a supple back, hips and hamstrings will not only be far less prone to overuse injuries than his stiffer training partners. He can also hunker down into aerodynamic positions easily and ride for longer, with more comfort. A cyclist able to breathe slower and deeper will breathe more efficiently and economically. A cyclist able to reduce adrenaline and control a scattered mind with concentration techniques will remain calm and focused in the heat of a race. This is the ideal, no-nonsense resource, where every stretch, strengthening posture, breathing or recovery technique relates back to its impact on performance.
