Do you struggle with lower back pain when cycling? Or maybe ongoing knee pain when cycling? You can have the best bike fit in the world but if you are not supporting yourself in a proper position, you will still suffer from pain!

Practicing riding in the position above will help: 1) Ease tension in your lower back, 2) Increase gluteal muscle activity, 3) Ease tension in the front of your knees. It will take time to adapt if you are not used to riding in this type of position. The more you practice, the stronger and more coordinated you become and the less symptoms you will experience.

Bike fit, proper positioning on the bike, and a routine core/flexibility program will help keep you pain free and enjoy riding your bike! If you are unsure where to start, or still have ongoing pain, consult a health care provider to get a proper diagnosis and treatment plan. We treat countless cyclists and triathletes at our San Diego based sports chiropractic clinic, Peak Form health Center. We are conveniently located in Mission Valley, San Diego!
