You have the most beneficial cycling KZbin channel I have seen!👍👍👍

[@BulletproofCycling]

That is very kind Douglas. They are lots of big budget channels out there 👍👍👍

[@cathalkenneally1614]

Great advice as usual. I did my longest ride today and first group ride in ages. 59.5 miles in 4 and a half hours. Also set a record for climbing. I have come across some serious hills in the Chilterns. Loving your videos and brilliant insight into all things cycling, plus a bit of humour thrown in for good measure.

[@BulletproofCycling]

Thank you 🙏

This workout is healthy and amazing too but i have to tell you grow more and healthy why eaten well because having nice diet helps much in your fitness journey like 70% diet and 30% workouts but you may ask why saying about food because am into fitness too so stay connected. Egg yolks are high in cholesterol and nutrients like vitamins, minerals, and healthy fats. Eating only egg whites to avoid the cholesterol from the yolk may only be necessary for people at an elevated risk of heart disease

I didn't have a towel so I used cycling shirts, but it was too short so I used cycling slacks and it worked!!!!!

[@gleaveinjapan]

Hey coach, how about some follow along exercise routines. Like a 5 minute of 5 mobility exercises to improve your posture on and off the saddle. We can work out with you twice or three times a day.

[@daviddiskin5668]

What is best way to access other videos about fitness and stretching to alleviate pain when bicycling. I’m a 76 year old guy who love to ride my road bike. Biggest problems are neck pain and lower back pain. Thanks!!

[@Matthew-ez4ze]

From your lessons I always remember B.A.R.D.: Bend elbows, Arch my back, Roll my hips forward, and Dance on the pedals. It works for getting me down and aero.

[@BulletproofCycling]

Love it 👍

[@wrightwoodwork]

I've started to do a bit of yoga work off the bike. Also when I start to get tired on a ride and posture is starting to fail the key things I say to myself is pinch the shoulder blades which I find puts us back into good posture

These are actually also what my bike fitter always recommends to do. Can you perhaps do a suggestion on some post ride drills we can also incorporate?

Thanks coach,tried towel exercise couldn't even get arms all the way back,proves how stiff I was.

Don’t worry Steve - I have less aggressive ones than this that’ll I’ll share in workout videos 👍

[@michaelstoecker4178]

Thanks, Coach. If one-leg glute bridges are good, I think I'll try zero-leg bridges (got to be better, right?)! 🤔 Seriously, all good recommendations - concentrating on good posture on the bike generally means the delaying of the onset of sharp pain between the shoulder blades (rhomboids?). 👍👍

[@marcus_velo_9970]

great advice coach, I see many riders favoring/loading their right side - especially under fatigue or higher efforts, so riders have adapted this compensatory style to all their riding. you'd think there would be quite a bit of power lost from this wonky style. how to fix, coach?

[@mikegreer1829]

Blimey I knew I was stiff, but getting my arms behind my head to even shoulder level proved impossible..Practice, practice...

[@tylerbruce5731]

Not everyone will be able to do it and thats ok. Lots of people suffer from impingement and genetic limitations.

[@BulletproofCycling]

I have other drills that I will share that are less aggressive. Just start with what you can do and turn up daily. In my prime ( 30 years ago now 😂) I had good range of movement so I did lots of drills as I found them straightforward. I know lots of others who found them harder and because of that they avoided them. Just stick at it 👍

[@cyclops60]

Loving the 'off the bike' content. I now do single leg teeth brushing, and a short activation routine as a pre-ride warm up, definitely helps. P.S. many thanks for answering my Zone 2 email. Malcolm.

[@nafizz1701]

Coach, can you share which bicycle you ride? Brand, model and year size? Im 5'10 and ride a 56 specialised road bike. I remember you saying you ride a 52 or 53 which got me thinking how can there be such a difference in bike size with the same height unless the Geometry is completely different

[@BulletproofCycling]

Hi, I am sane height but never ridden anything other than 52 or 53 and I also I ride a 50 TT frame! Two bikes I ride at present are 52 Kinesis Lightweight and Orbea Orca Aero 53 👍

[@nafizz1701]

@@BulletproofCycling I did a quick Geometry comparison online between the orca aero 53 and aethos 56(mine). The orca aero 53 has 10mm shorter reach, 17mm lower stack, 15mm shorter toptube and head angle 0.7 degrees slacker. Is that a huge difference?

[@BulletproofCycling]

@@nafizz1701 the stack change is always more than reach and this catches a few folks out but aero bikes are generally lower. Reach can be 3-5mm different in each size. Seems small but stack can be 10mm. However the real reach is from your saddle to all parts you hold. All parts AND not what you feel comfy with. So you may have long torso and long arms but you may be shorter in the legs. 👍👍

[@MartinYang]

I count three drills. What's the fourth one?

[@BulletproofCycling]

It was a hip flexor drill - editor cut it so will add to my workout videos 👍

[@anushvgowda5888]

Hey coach, I was getting pain in my glutes when I try to push harder on aero bars ,are these exercises solution to my pain????

[@BulletproofCycling]

I am going to be sharing some workouts that target these areas. 👍

[@anushvgowda5888]

Do notify coach

[@dave136]

Great video coach…would you say I’m too old (54) for me to benefit from these exercises for my cycling 🤔…by the way your Orbea looks stunning!

[@mikegreer1829]

I'm 74, so you've a long way to go yet

[@ElaineWalls]

I'm 54 too and these exercises are an absolute must.

[@tonynekrews]

54 is not too old for anything

[@mikegreer1829]

@@tonynekrews I whole heartedly agree. At 74 I'm not the fastest nor am I am ultradistance cyclist. Though I do ride Audax up to 200k, as long as I finish inside the time limit I'm happy and grateful.

[@tonynekrews]

Yeah, I’m 64 and still ride everyday. Only competition I get involved in these days is with myself, and I challenge myself all the time. Never felt better. I find age is largely between the ears for most people

[@commonsense1339]

As someone who wants to watch your videos, I want to tell you something because you lost me at a little past 1 minute. I didn't watch after that. The reason: In my opinion you took too long to get to the title of your video...you didn't address the 'how' in the time I watched...only the 'why'. If your title is 'how to sit better and cycle faster', you will keep my attention if you start with a 'how' and include the 'why' during the video. If you are going to start with 'why', put a 'why' in your title. I hope this comes across as constructive as well as critical. Thank you.

This is for the Idiots, that think-stretching is NOT necessary for cycling 😡 ❤️🙏
