Hi all, my name is Adam Clark and I have been cycling professionally for over 10 years. My blog is a treasure trove of informative information about cycling and its forms.
Cycling is considered not just a sport, but a lifestyle for anyone who loves the extreme, is constantly improving and prefers a healthy lifestyle. Cyclists have the opportunity to choose what is closest to their heart: cycling for time (racing), performing tricks. There are several varieties of cycling – cycle track racing, road cycling, mountain biking, cycling motocross. Some of these sports are included in the Olympic program. There are also cycling sports such as cycling ball and cycling polo.
This sport is similar to athletics: in both, the maximum load falls on the legs. Hence the similarity of the training process, its goal is to increase the body’s endurance and performance, strengthening the joints and muscles.
In achieving victory, not only the physical preparation of the cyclist, but also the characteristics of his “iron horse” plays a big role. They directly affect the position of the rider and, consequently, the setting of breathing, the quality of the work of internal organs and systems, as well as joints and muscles. The rider’s posture depends on the height of the seat and the handlebars, as well as the size of the pedals.
