very well queued. thank you Rachel.
great stretching - wonderful class
So enjoyed stretching everything out ……thank you.
So great for tight calves! Wondering if it is for you today? Vinyasa flows with some stretch hold for 5 or so breaths. Lots of calf and IT band stretches, some back bends. Not a lot of twists or forward folds. So for me-perfect! Thank you Rachel!
excellent
I do not like biking but love, love this class. A great morning class, thanks Rachel.
i am a cyclist and a hiker, with tight hips. This is a go-to class, and I keep coming back again and again. I find the more I come back the more I get out of it as Rachel's cues are spot-on. Thank you Rachel and my hips thank you as well.
Excellent class! I even managed to work out my big toe that has been jammed for over 2 weeks. I noticed it was facing in a strange direction while in a calf stretch and slowly turned it in the correct direction and felt a few cracks and then boom! 90% of the pain was gone. I wouldn't be surprised if that jam wasn't related to some tight muscles in my calves and hips. Thanks Rachel!
This is one of the best classes I've ever taken! I'm a runner and I've never felt so stretched out in my lower body. Thank you :)
I loved this, thanks so much! (Did we miss Lizard pose on the left side in the first 15-20 mins though? I tried to skip through again to check, but can't be sure - might just be me! :)
Hallo! It's entirely possible!!!
If so - my SINCERE apologies - and warning to all students - add in lizard ;) LOL
Hi All! Lizard on left comes around 26:30.
It's there, just in a different order.
Excellent hip stretch and IT band stretches integrated into a liberating yoga flow practice. Thank you!!! (I am a brisk walker, occasional jogger, and use a stationary bike.
Glad you enjoyed it Jill! yes - those exercises for sure will create strong glutes quads - and tight IT bands ;) I'm glad this hit the spot~
Not a cyclist but i do a lot of walking and time on the feet. this is an amazing class for stretching the legs
Thanks Rachel. Always a challenge for cyclists to stretch IT bands. Namaste foe the great practice
This is also a great practice for runners. I did it on a rest day from running, the day before a long run. Hit ALL the spots. Perfect. Not too strenuous. Thanks, Rachel.
My first class with Rachel - won't be my last! Thank you for this practice that invigorated me and relaxed me at the same time. What a lovely feeling.
Great class thank you!!! As a cyclist I am familiar with these stretches. Thank you for putting them together in a focused class with a functional warm up. I will be doing this class regularly!
Love the IT band stretches, great way to change up my yoga routine. Thank you.
My husband and I love this class. We are fairly avid cyclists and this one does just the trick post-rides or next morning. Thanks Rachel, we really enjoy all of your yoga for cyclists classes, including the yin one!
Excellent recovery day workout for anyone who needs to stretch the hips, calves and chest. Highly recommend this wonderful flow.
10/6/19 Excellent class to stretch out the hips and calves - after a week of hiking, I needed this! Feel good, juicy stretches with just the right amount of holding; a great way to release tight muscles and tight mind. Bookmarked for future use. Great stuff from Rachel, as always. Thank you!
This is so great! And I haven't been on a bike in years! Thank you for another superb class! xx
Great stretches for cyclists & sitters, super relaxing too.
One of my new fave classes with Rachel.
Suggestion: How about Yoga Flow for desk sitters?
Hi, Rachel. My 11 year old son wants you to know that this class was AMAZING!
Greatings from Norway.
I LOVE that!!!!
That is the best thing I've read all day ;)
XO
Loved the cues into dhanurasana (bow) This class combined two of my favourite things about DYWM- Rachel's technical approach and dealing with daily mind and body stress XD
Thanks for this great class which stretches all of my cycling muscles!
Wow! Hello IT band stretches. I didn't know it was possible for my legs to feel this loose and limber after a ride. Thanks for this wonderful class. I will be returning to it often now that cycling season has begun.
I’ve been running a lot of hills recently, this was a perfect release for my calves! Thank you!!!
A practice that really gets at all the sticky spots in the hips and quads--really enjoyed it!
