DO
Adjust the seat to the right position for your height
(between 71 and 98cm vertically). Your legs should never
by fully bent or fully straight.
Cycle with bare feet.
Pedal with your toes. Always apply an equal distribution
of pressure on the pedals.
Perfect your posture, keep your back straight so that you
are not hunched over.
Bend your back. You shouldn’t be in a hunched over
position to grab the handlebars.
Relax your grip to alleviate muscle tension. Overdo it. If the resistance is too high, drop it down a few
notches and ease off the cadence.
Periodically change your hand position to either the lower
part of the handlebar or the hand pulse sensors.
Tense up your arms and shoulders. This causes fatigue
which means your workout will be less effective.
THE DOS AND DON’TS . . .
DON’T
PERFECTING YOUR
CYCLING FORM
Adjust the pedal straps so they sit snug, but not too tight,
with your feet inside.
