RaceChick Posted January 15, 2009 Share Sorry forgot to mention, once its down at the knee you roll it back up to the hip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dfm1 Posted January 15, 2009 Share Overtrained is the most overused and abused term in endurance sport training. I would take any advice dished out here with a pinch of salt and then go and see a REAL physiology expert about the pain!!! Unless the Hubber dishing out the advice is a professional medical expert of course... Hay watch it, I studied medicine at the University of North South east Betshuanaland and qualified with honours, that is after the squased the entire 7 year course into one afternoon and I passed with a distinction, hang on come to think of it so did al 98 class mates and some of them fell asleep after the afternoon beer break Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TNT1 Posted January 15, 2009 Share My biokeneticist friend gave me the exercise. I bought the foam roller from her. It is is about 25cm in diameter. Looks like a pool noodle but thicker and stiffer. You lie on your side with the foam roller beneath you starting at the hip. Cross your top leg over the bottom one to keep your balance and then with your arms move upwards so that the foam roller rolls down to your knee. You can do this exercise for your calves' date=' glutes and hamstrings. It helps to stretch them. Takes you five minutes to do. Should I post picts later tonight?[/quote'] If this technique works for the pain as described by the original poster, then I'd got with Colonel as to the cause... ITB...

THE BODY CENTRE Posted January 15, 2009 Share RaceChick - those rollers really work well especially where the problem is tight fascia and other soft tissue! The roller acts like a firm stretch INTO the tissue would do -- and you can do it yourself and not go to somebody to do it for you!! @TNT1 - where do you get your weird and wonderful answers from?? @enduroman - setup setup setup. ALL cyclists should be able to be painfree when they cycle - its the one sport where you can mechanically influence ''things'' to be painfree!

What do you mean cycling should be pain free, you must be joking, its all about "The Pain" . Seeing who can take the most and who can dish out the most, dont say it should be pain free, that means I need to look at some other form of sport, maybe lawn bowls or something, dont shatter my dream and tell me it should be pain free Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am doing it myself but it took a while for me to find out what was wrong, and that the biokineticist did sort out, you idiot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
