Very good one, different one than the previous one which gives us more options for a quick session in the living room front of TV, my girls are enjoying my spectacle/show on carpet each time. LOL Thanks Abi - regards

Hello Abi,
Lower back pain appears when I ride my road bike, when I pedal harder on my MTB or when I make long trips in my light car.
It disappears after few seconds just standing up.
This doesn't work for me.
Most of the positions are easy for me. The hardest position is wide leg forward fold because I feel my hamstring are too shorts.
Any help?

@Rabbii:
I had something similar. Hard to say if it's the same cause, but it could be.
My issue was weak glutes and hamstrings which pulls out the low back. Start with gentle strengthening, then stretching. Stretching won't help if you're weak.Gotta work on core strength and balance too.
Anyways, trying those things couldn't hurt.
I've heard that having a weak posterior chain is common for cyclists of all kinds. Rowing machines are good for that.

@yoga15app I really struggle getting into some of these shapes, especially when bending forward from a standing position. I can't get anywhere near my toes, only about halfway down my shins. Any tips for this?

Have you tried easing into it? say taking 5-10 minutes to loosen and progress into the position?
Try putting your hands on the ground a couple feet in front of you and work your way backwards slowly

Specifically for forward bends/touching your toes, Google "hip hinge". It's crucial you don't round your lower back and add extra stress to your lumbar spine. The aim is not to touch your toes but to stretch your hamstrings which is going to take patience and persistence.

This was exactly what I needed, thanks. I spend way too much time sitting at a desk, and then expect my body to leap into action for 90 mins of biking. No wonder I ache. You've got an incredibly soothing voice too, which helps.

My pleasure! Try to get up and walk around every 30 mins or so during the day and stand as much as you can. This will also help you not to feel so stiff.

Perfect, thanks abi. I think I'll do this one quite often. I've got a weakness in my lower back, do you have any other tips on how to strengthen my lower back?
