Hey Everyone
Yesterday, I attended my 1st lesson in about 6 years and I had the same old problem of getting brief cramps in each hip as I sat down into the saddle for the first time, which would last a few minutes before fading again, and so I wondered if there are any good exercises and/or stretches to do in order to become more subtle to avoid having cramps when mounting?
At the moment, I'm happy to ride once a month until I can get a few other things sorted out, but thought it would worth asking about this as I imagine plenty of other riders may have experienced this and would be useful for other new riders to be aware of some exercises to help become more subtle in the saddle.
Any help and advice is very much appreciated and I look forward to hearing from you soon.
