Cycling is one of those sports where the body adapts so thoroughly to the position it’s held in that it starts to forget any other position exists. Spend enough hours in the saddle and the hip flexors shorten, the quads tighten, the lower back loads up from ongoing forward flexion, and the neck develops the kind of tension that only comes from holding your head up while the rest of you is folded over a handlebar. That’s a sign you’ve been riding, not that something is wrong, and the tissue needs some attention before it becomes the reason you’re not riding.<\/span><\/p>\n

This is what a therapist actually focuses on in a sports massage for cycling, and how to use it to train and recover better. The same principle applies across all endurance sports, and<\/span> sports massage timing for athletes<\/span><\/a> follows the same logic whether you’re on a bike or not.<\/span><\/p>\n
