ericbenjaminjr Posted June 28, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 28, 2014 Thats pretty much me. My neck shoulders and upper back on my left side which is my weaker side. From what I gather from the public experience I can start riding to my spots. Bunny hop curbs on the way, then start mild and increase gradually. I've also heard about the stretching thing being vintage medicine. Especially for sports requiring strong short bursts of muscle power.

dk2 Posted June 29, 2014 Report Share Posted June 29, 2014 I love streching, it allows me to move my body ;-)....I find it that the more flexible you are the less prone to injuries you are...in the end just ride the damn thing and have fun...

thinkdougie Posted June 29, 2014 Report Share Posted June 29, 2014 Never really warm up, do some smaller stuff first if that counts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weebryan Posted June 29, 2014 Report Share Posted June 29, 2014 Well i find light stretching, cycle about for while until heart rate is up and muscles warmed up before i start doing proper trials moves. Get home foam roller myself out any tight spots and recently been having a protein shake when i get in, no more sore muscles and go out on bike on regular basis 32 years old and just fought off cancer over winter time so my body is proper frail and in need of tlc but i miss my bikes too much 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TOMTRIALS123 Posted June 29, 2014 Report Share Posted June 29, 2014 (edited) I use the medieval method of warming up by putting live chickens under my armpits to soak up all my sin. I then throw them in the air like a loving embrace (but the opposite) and chant ' Jimmy Jimmy bum and willie, give me frilly knickers tonight'. What this does is bless you and your bike for the next few hours before you have to sell your soul to the devil so that you can ride again.

Try putting the chicken down first Ah, but I threw them away in a loving embrace Edit: ^^^ what I just said doesn't make sense. Whats another word for embrace but the opposite?

trialsalot Posted June 29, 2014 Report Share Posted June 29, 2014 I usually get out the car,jump on my bike,do a tiny gap then slip a disc...if I'm really unlucky its a new one. I don't think people realise how much trials kicks the shit out of your body. I'm 32 this year and now forced to quit thanks to multiple disc issues in my back. Get stretching boys and girls!
