This stretch targets the sides of the hips and the thighs—typical problem areas for cyclists.
It's also a good practice have this stretching before you have a elliptical bike or magnetic bike.
- Hold your buttocks firm, then raise your right foot and place it on a stable support in front of you with knee bent. Raise your right heel so that just the ball of your foot is on the support.
- Stretch up, pulling your ribs away from your pelvis, and lean forward over your bent leg. Pull your navel into your spine, round your back, and grasp your ankle. Hold for 3 breath cycles, then repeat on the other leg.
