Comment on ‘Get in Shape’ #7: Strength & Flexibility - Don’t shirk your core muscles.parent

Comments

It feels like my abs get a good workout, but for my lats it's mainly a tweak I keep getting between my left shoulder blade and spine. Also, my core muscles get a lot tighter after riding than my legs do. I don't have great bike posture because my big ol' belly pulls my back straight instead of properly arched up.

I bike 3.25 miles on city streets to my commuter train stop. There's one hill that's short and steep on the way up and long and gradual on the way down, with the rest being mostly flat. I usually bike pretty hard because I'm running late.
