Pedal standing is back! – Bionicoldguy

I discussed in previous posts how I like to pedal facing upright. It’s a challenging aerobic and feels a little like a running, which is great for a former runner. But lately I haven’t been able to do it much because my SI is complaining. This is not very bad in itself, but it can be an early sign of sciatica I definitely want to avoid. I mentioned that there were problems with this in the past. But I remembered that my SI belt could help with it, so I recently tried it on my rides. Little by little, I add more standing and today I managed to get away with quite a bit of it without problems. I did it in the park of Anderson Lake County and the dirt paths near the Coyote Creek path. I had forgotten how this allows me to deal with a greater terrain because your legs absorb many of the vibrations when standing.

I also avoid longer rides on my upright motor, but with a SI belt, I did well in a three-hour group ride last Tuesday. It will be nice to drive more and add more variety to my workouts.
