Fix yourself now, so you can ride strong in 2010!

After a season of riding, racing, traveling in the van, car, and airplane your body is probably a bit out of whack. Sitting on the saddle followed by sitting in the car followed by sitting/laying on the couch can start to create muscle imbalances in your body. Now is the time to "fine tune" your body.

You may have muscle imbalances, flexibility imbalances (or both), pedal stroke imbalances, or mental training imbalances. If you have one imbalance, there is a good chance you have another one too.

Fix those imbalances so you can ride stronger in 2010.

Good "fixing" exercises include-
-Pilates (my favorite!)
-Yoga
-Massage
-Single leg pedaling
-Stretching
-REST
-Walking
