Yoga 14Yoga for Cyclists, part 14: What is core strength?
When we talk about the core, we're not just talking about what you're thinking about - the six pack. Or was that just me? Anyway...
It's also about the obliques, which run down the side of the stomach, the muscles that connect the thigh to the pelvis to the back, and also the pelvic floor muscles (the ones you use to stop peeing).
All of the movements we make when cycling (or doing anything else) rely on the core, and maintaining it can actually reduce your chances of getting injured. In this video, road.cc's resident yoga expert Karen Burt explains more.
She explains which of the yoga videos you can play together to make your own personalised yoga routine that'll help get your core into tip-top condition:

Please people, just say NO! We need to stand together with our wallets shut to stop this inexorable road to ruin. Sport should not be all about...
But the issue with cycling is that the teams participating see none of this money. Football, cricket, golf all see money paid to players or teams...
I have questions about the noise level and uncertainty in the measurements made in their wind tunnel, as well as how uniform the free stream...
I think to a lot of new cyclists Halfords seems a safe choice, as it's a brand they are familiar with and they know they can take it to be repaired...
