Enhancing Cycling Performance through Muscle Activation

Scout Hollister, a physical therapy student and Cat 1 cyclist, discusses 4 Pillars of High Performance on the bike.

I was curious about Glute Dopers and the virtual aspect; he explains that virtual therapy became necessary during the COVID-19 pandemic and allows for a broader reach. He emphasizes the importance of addressing the specific needs of cyclists and the limitations of local physical therapists who may not understand the demands of the sport. Scout also explains the difference between pain and injury, highlighting that pain is a request for change in the body. He discusses the ineffectiveness of rest alone in resolving pain and the need to modify function to alleviate pain while on the bike. He provides tips for improving off-bike performance, including identifying personal limiters, establishing a daily mobility routine, and incorporating pre-ride activation exercises. Thanks Scout!
