I do this stretch every time I ride. I have it memorized now and don't need the video, but sometimes I like having it to see helen do it with me. I wish I could find more videos from Helen. She's my favorite yogi.

I keep coming back here after every ride. My recovery got way better and I feel a lot more mobile on the bike. Thanks Helen and CRC!

Great to hear!

I ride a 20 mile bike trail every other weekend with one of my friends. This stretch always leaves me refreshed after a long harsh ride. My friend doesn’t think stretching works and is always stiff as a board the next day. You save me every single week!

Agree 💯% !!

Great routine to counter the effects of sitting too long, not just on the bike but on the office chair and on the couch watching Netflix! Get off your bum and do this stretch, especially nice after you’re all warm and loose after a ride! Only issue is I found the pace a bit too quick, adjusted the playback speed to 0.75x and it was perfect :)

Things like these reinforce my belief that internet is a superpower. Thanks for an amazing strecht, all my pain is gone

Was expecting a boring list of stretches, found the perfect deep and efficient post ride flow. Thanks!!

What’s that mountain range in the background?

Hi Helen. You are a life saver. I wath both the warm up and the cool down videos daily. I just love it when you say " Reach reach reach reach reach .......reach forward" that really helps 😂. Again thank you so kuch for these awesome videos.

This is my favorite post scycling stretch, I love it when i feel the difference between the first leg that got streched and the second. Thank you.

This sequence is pure magic. It's been the fifth weekend in a row of 100k+ rides where I hobble in convinced that I'm going to be sore for a few days, end up finishing up this sequence and wonder what all the fuss was about! Thank you so much for this :)

That felt amazing but it showed me how inflexible I am, to much gym and not enough stretching

This was AWESOME! I just got off the bike from 137kms and this is exactly what I needed 👌

This was the best yoga meets cycling video out there. I’ve done all the popular ones and this is the best. I’m probably a lot of the views. Thanks and do more please

I discovered late this video but luckily I did and found amazingly useful. I am a doctor going to work by bike, 30km/day, and this stretching sequence changed my life and comfort. Thank you very much

I use this after every ride I do and use the warm up for longer rides. Its transformed how my body reacts to cycling and has really eased my knee problems so thankyou! 😊 Really enjoyable routine too

Me channeling Theoden from Lord of the Rings after his horse fell on top of him: "My body is broken". Really needed this!

Best post ride stretch video on KZread by far

Really enjoy this stretch after a ride!! Great job Helen 👏

That was a fabulous series of stretches! Just the right length or each and right amount of direction/chat to go with it. Thank you!

This is perfect after a session on the trainer! I do it every time I ride

I just love you for this, I’ve never been this so relaxed until I found this stretches

Thanks Hellen, a great little routine I can use to focus on form and function. It is definitely challenging for me (fitish, overweight and 50+). It highlighted my flexibility deficits that are causing pain and power loss on the bike. A great baseline test to track flexibility progress on my. I know this is 4 years old but hope you are still delivering content. 😊

Just arrived from a solo 70km ride with hills. Quads absolutely on fire. Feels so much better after the routine. Thank you

My lower back was hurting so bad after a long ride, now It feels really good. Thanks a lot.

This is the best post cycling stretching routine. I memorized the moves but still opening background to here the nice warm voice 💙

Can’t get by without this post ride routine. Thanks Helen

This is the best of the best routine you can do after cycling session. Thank you.

Just adding to all the hundreds of other positive comments, feels so good, thank you!

Exactly what I needed today. Thank you!

This has helped with knee pain so much in such a short time, massive thumbs up to this.

Thanks Helen, did my 40k zwift ride followed by your recommended stretching, feeling awesome 😇😇😇

After 8 years of cycling and trying this stretch routine for the first time ever...all I can say is THANK YOU for exposing myself to myself, I didn’t realize just how rod stiff my body truly is,my hamstrings are a stiff knot,my hip flexors were nowhere to be found😏😏 My poor lower back almost snapped in half. THANK YOU very much for this routine,I’m gonna incorporate it in both my pre and post workout...also starting YOGA to really work on my flexibility.😉✌🏿
