L Carol Hassett ( ), chassett46@yahoo.com), CL Bob Hassett ( ) Better Riding Habits Cycling Tips: Ride Efficiently (PART 2) By Alex Stieda Get more out of your engine by learning to ride efficiently. Practice this skill at least once a week while riding the trainer this winter, and you'll be ready to fly by spring. Take In More Air Breathing properly takes practice and concentration. Most people try to breathe deeper by expanding their chest, but the muscles between the ribs don't move much. The best way to bring air into your lungs is to expand your stomach outward--this pulls down your diaphragm, so the lungs can fill to maximum capacity. And when you contract your stomach muscles, the diaphragm pushes upward, forcing air out. As with the pedaling drills, try belly breathing for five minutes to start, then gradually increase the length of the exercise. Alex Stieda, the first North American to wear the yellow jersey in the Tour de France, with 7- Eleven in 1986, leads tours and skills camps (stiedacycling.com). Excerpt from
