on:It’s been almost four months since Chain Reaction.
I’ve done a few casual rides but nothing big, nothing steep and nothing fast. The days are dim, cold and wet, and I’m low on motivation to turn a pedal over. Even if I was keen, between moving house, the three kids, a smaller, dingier home and a holiday to Noosa (which was great), there hasn’t been much of a chance.
I went to see Edmore to relieve some tightness in my right lower back / flute yesterday and he pointed the finger at weak, tight abs. If you haven’t had someone stretch your abs for you, I don’t recommend it, but it did the trick. The prescription is, as usual, more strength in the places required to counter overdevelopment in the quads.
