1. Knee warm-up before riding

The warm-up action before riding should also include the knee, from inside to outside, massage for 25 cycles, and then reverse massage for 25 cycles, so as to balance the distribution of joint lubricant and reduce the friction between cartilage.

2. Moderate seat height

People and vehicles are not high enough to be injured easily during riding. If the seat is too high, it will cause calf muscle cramps or knee socket pain; The car seat is too low, and it is easy to wear the knees. Especially when climbing and stepping hard, there has been an accident of anterior cruciate ligament exercise.

3. Work in the right way

Many people used to use their knees to start cycling, but the result is that they will soon feel sore knees, and the speed will naturally slow down. The correct way to force is to use gluteus maximus and quadriceps femoris.

4. Knee warmth

There are few blood vessels around the knee. You should pay attention to keeping the knee warm when riding at ordinary times, especially in winter. If the temperature is lower than 15 , you should consider using a fleece leg cover.

5. Warm up ride

In the early stage of riding, it is equivalent to warming up. Ride at a speed of 15km per hour for 20 minutes to warm up the blood flow around the knee joint. First, ride with light teeth and faster treading frequency, gradually increase the tooth ratio, and increase the treading frequency until you sweat a little, so that the knee joint is not easy to be injured when climbing and stepping on the gear.

6. Keep stepping frequency

The daily riding frequency should be kept at 70-90 rpm. A low riding frequency will not make you relaxed, but will make you feel more tired. When climbing, the stepping frequency can be reduced. Try to use sitting posture, and use light tooth ratio, which is conducive to the health of the knee joint.

 

7. A gradual process

Whether you want to ride faster or farther, it should be based on your good physical fitness. If you suddenly speed up and your muscle strength fails to keep up, riding too far and your physical fitness fails to keep up will bring a huge burden to your knees. On the premise of having a clear understanding of your level, you can increase the single riding distance every week. The step-by-step process can not only steadily improve the riding level, but also effectively protect the knee joint.

 

8. Choose the right cycling socks/riding socks

Generally speaking, cycling socks/riding socks are thin and breathable. The soles of the feet are in contact with the pedal for a long time, so ventilation will be enhanced at the instep. Cycling socks/riding socks are light and thin. With their own perspiration function and the air flow between bicycles, they help the soles of the feet to discharge sweat and moisture. In this way, they will feel more dry and comfortable during riding.

 

In addition, there will be a ratty action when treading during riding, so the length of socks must exceed that of the car shoes, and the protection at the Achilles tendon will be strengthened to reduce friction and prevent injury.
