Cycling Workshop: Back on (Single) Track
May 17, 2023 @ 5:30 pm - 6:30 pm
FreeLearn tools to keep you out enjoying the trails on your road, mountain or gravel bike without back pain. Join Dr. Tim Gross, PT, DPT, MTC of Basecamp Physical Therapy for a free hour-long, interactive workshop, hosted by Webcyclery. Enjoy a free pint while you learn and move!
Contrary to popular belief, back pain is rarely related to a structural injury, but is usually caused by the irritation of very sensitive tissues in the back. When it comes to cycling, a very unique demand is placed on the spine, as you are likely going to be in a sustained posture for a long period of time.
The workshop will cover effective tools to combat back pain during and after riding. Dr. Gross will also discuss different exercises to increase the strength and mobility of your back, with opportunities to practice lifting technique/movements with feedback.
