I’ve mentioned in earlier posts how I prefer to pedal standing up on an upright bike. That is difficult aerobically, and feels slightly like operating which is nice for a former runner. However these days I haven’t been capable of do it a lot as a result of my SI joint complains. This isn’t too dangerous by itself however will be an early signal of sciatica flaring up which I undoubtedly wish to keep away from. I’ve talked about having issues with this up to now . However I remembered that my SI joint belt may help with this so I’ve been making an attempt it on my rides not too long ago. Little by little I add in additional standing, and in the present day I used to be capable of get away with fairly a little bit of it with out points. I did it over at Anderson Lake County Park and the grime paths close to the Coyote Creek path. I had forgotten how this enables me additionally to deal with rougher terrain as a result of your legs take in numerous the vibration when standing.
I’ve additionally been avoiding longer rides on my upright bike, however with the SI joint belt on, I did wonderful on a three-hour lengthy group journey final Tuesday. I will probably be good to journey the upright extra and add extra selection in my coaching.
