I think this is the right Forum for this
Throughout 2010 so far, I've encountered a range of aliments, from joint aches to "noisey" knees. When I started riding again I didnt care for such things, I just threw the leg over and I was off. But I've REALLY noticed a measurable deterioration of the body in the last 6 months.
Poor old HBA have spent a fortune at my Chiropractor! However last week i was talking with them and they asked about my flexibility... I gave them a dumb look.... to which they stretched me out and seemed quite horrified. Said something about my back is fine, and hamstrings + glutes are overloading my back.
So she gave me a routine of stretches I have to do 2-3 times a day. I begrudgingly have been doing them, and am really surprised how much they've helped.
So... what other handy(eg. practical) tips do you have to look after your body ?
