Listen "Ep 82: Cracking The Code On Hypermobility + Bike Fitting - With Physio, Bryan McCullough "
Episode Synopsis
This week we interview another well established bike fitter / physio, Bryan from The Bike The Body, to explore the subject of how to help riders with hypermobility find a great bike fit.
Are you even aware if you have hypermobility?
And why does it matter?
And how does hypermobility affect my bike riding specifically?
If you want to know the answers to these questions, plus get actionable advice, whether you are a rider or bike fitter, listen on as we lift the lid on hypermobility.
We explore:
- The scale for assessing hypermobility
- Can you grow out of hypermobility?
- What is your proprioceptive age?
- Could you have a connective tissue disorder?
- Why stretching could be the worst thing you can do...
- And actionable advice for living & riding with hypermobility.
You may be surprised how few riders know that they have hypermobility, but it could explain many of the pains and discomforts you've been experiencing out on the road.
Let's go!
