| | | Need lower back advice for cycling When I cycle, my lower back gets sore after about an hour. It recovers if I get off the bike and stretch backwards.
Are there any exercises to strengthen my lower back? |

Are you a competitive cyclist? If not, it might be time to switch up your cardio. Alot of people get this problem due to the spinal flexion when you cycle. |

| | | I had a lot of lower back pain after I injured my knee many years ago, mostly just a painful stiffness. I found a combination of stretching and heavy SLDL's helped me a lot. Stretching exercises I would recommend: toe touches, ballet dancer stretches, stretch kicks, splits, tai chi swinging arms. A lot of the stretching I learned studying Karate and Tai Chi. You might want to try out some martial art schools if you have time for it. |  | | Thread Tools | Search this Thread | | | | | Display Modes | Rate This Thread | Linear Mode | |
