Bottom line, you can spend $1000s on a bike and all the right gear, but if your muscles are imbalanced, you will never reach your full potential on the bike. In fact, you are at risk of injury, if not riding with pain already. Targeted dynamic movement, strengthening and stretching have been proven to eliminate knee and back pain, accelerate recovery, restore a healthy range of motion and increase power.Â
Most riders donât bring it up, but almost every rider feels it sooner or later.Â
That stubborn tightness, the dull ache after a ride, the stiffness that makes it harder to push power through the pedals.Â
Itâs called Lower Back Lockdownâand itâs what happens when your core and hip muscles get stuck in a shortened, imbalanced position.
Think about your day off the bikeâŚ
Hours spent sitting at a desk or driving in the car put your hips and spine into a flexed position.Â
Then you get on the bike⌠and repeat that same posture for miles. Over time, your body adaptsânot in a good way. The muscles in your hips and lower back tighten, your pelvis tilts forward, and your lower spine takes the hit.
The warning signs are hard to miss:
â Tight hamstrings
â Locked-up hips
â Sore quads on and off the bike
â Achy knees
â Stiff lower back
It's a deep muscle called the psoasâthe connector between your lower body and your upper body. It powers every key movement on the bikeâfrom driving each pedal stroke to holding your position in the saddle.
When the psoas locks up, your pelvis shifts, your back curves, and your core weakens. Thatâs Lower Back Lockdown in actionâand if you donât address it, the pain will only keep showing up ride after ride.
When the front of your pelvis tips forward, your lower spine arches more than it should, your glutes switch off, and your core loses stability.
The result? A chain reaction of tightness, weakness, and pain.
On the bike, this posture robs you of power and efficiency. Off the bike, it shows up as rounded shoulders, a stiff lower back, and constant fatigue in your hips and quads. And no matter how much you stretch randomly, the cycle keeps repeatingâbecause the problem isnât just tight muscles. Itâs the order and balance of how you release and strengthen them.
Escaping Lower Back Lockdown isnât about random stretches or guesswork. To unlock the psoas and restore balance, the muscles need to be worked in the right order, with the right timing, and with the right intention. Targeting one muscle in isolationâor rushing the processâcan actually make the problem worse.
Thatâs why so many riders give up when quick fixes donât deliver. The truth is, releasing Lower Back Lockdown takes a smart, structured approach. But with the right plan, youâll start to feel real changes within just a couple of weeks.
Even if youâve tried some of the stretches before, doing them in the proper sequence and holding them for the correct duration makes all the difference. Our program is designed to systematically unlock the layers of tissueâmuscle, fascia, and connective tissueâuntil even your joints can finally move the way theyâre meant to.
We do this by retraining your body to:
â
Restore a neutral pelvis so your spine stays supported
â
Lengthen the deep hip flexors (especially the psoas) that drive the tilt
â
Reactivate your glutes and core so they can stabilize every pedal stroke
â
Rebuild flexibility through the hips, hamstrings, and lower back
Youâre probably not a physiotherapist. Or an athletic therapist. Or a personal trainer.
But we are.
And weâre also cyclistsâriders who know firsthand what it feels like to be stuck in Lower Back Lockdown. Like you, we struggled to make stretching and mobility a daily priority, even though we knew it was the key to breaking free.
Once we committed, everything changed:
â
We could bend further and stay lower on the bike
â
Aerodynamics improved, making every ride faster and more efficient
â
We stopped eating the dust of other cyclists
â
Pride came back as we rode longer, farther, and harder
â
Fitness went up while injury risk went down
â
And most importantlyâwe started enjoying the ride again
Thatâs why we combined our professional expertise and our love of cycling to create a program that keeps riders accountable, on track, and free from Lower Back Lockdown.
The key to fixing muscle imbalances is something we call âThe Sequential Methodâ which is the order in which each exercise is done.
To lengthen your muscles properly, you need to stretch them in the right order. Concentrating on one muscle before the other can actually make those muscle imbalances worse, rather than better.
Even though you might know many of the stretches in our program, with our guided instructions, created by certified professionals, you never have to worry that:
Our unique sequential method targets the muscles prone to adaptive shortening for cyclists, especially the psoas, with daily routines to correctly and safely lengthen your muscles.
And itâs all accessible to you 24/7 with easy-to-follow, no-nonsense routines that track your progress over time.
Itâs as easy as:
Develops and maintains a healthy range of motion through a combination of static stretches and dynamic movements.Â

Corrects muscle imbalances and strengthens supporting muscles so you can ride pain free.

"I had very tight quads and what was probably a lot of muscle imbalances in my legs and back caused by too much riding and not a lot of anything else. I've been using the programming pretty much daily and looking back, I've made a massive improvement in my level of flexibility. I recover faster, feel fitter, can last longer and as a result my mood is much better.” - Brad.

EASY TO STAY ON TRACK
“The best part is not having to worry whether I'm even doing the right thing! All I have to do is show up once a day and follow along, with the confidence that the stretching routine is designed by people who know what they're talking about, leaving me to focus my mental energy elsewhere! But what I really love is how easy it is to do - crank up the iPad, roll out the mat, do what you are told for 20 minutes - job done.” - Anders.

CONVENIENT
“If I have to think about this stuff, it won't happen. And if I have too many choices as to what to do, I will spend more time trying to decide than exercising. Instead, I can get up, launch the site, resume my course and follow along. The routines are engaging, the right length and not overly technical. They have been key to enabling me to incorporate stretching into my daily routine - and that is what has enabled me to keep on top of my performance.” - Mark
