I feel like my cycling, training life is a bit like a Chinese buffet right now. A few favorites, a few new flavors, some stuff I’m not sure about, but hey, why not give it a whirl? Here’s a look at what’s on my plate and why:
. . .
Foundation Training: I’ve talked about it before and I’m still doing it. I don’t have back pain, never have (knock on wood). But my left knee occasionally gets grumpy and lord knows I sit on my butt far too many hours a day (like many of you, I’m sure), so my hips, hamstrings, and glutes are weaker/tighter/more imbalanced than they ought to be for how active I am. A few Good Mornings, Windmills, and Woodpeckers, à la Eric Goodman and Peter Park of Foundation Training, stretch and strengthen my muscles in all the right ways.
