Improve Your Race With Less Effort!

I had a startling revelation today. I learned that having a balanced spine is not only important to serious bicyclists, who I have seen in my office, but also to swimmers. Both groups can shave off time from their races. Cyclists, of course, want to have an even stroke between the two pedals. If there is a short leg, it is going to be the fault of the spine being out of balance. A short leg makes the seat shift in the saddle and alters the motion of the stroke (big waste of energy). For swimmers, a straight spine means cutting through the water with less resistance. Two more reasons to jump at the chance to acquire a balanced spine.
