Cyclists commonly experience neck strain due to the prolonged forward-leaning position inherent in road cycling, especially during long rides or when riding in aggressive positions such as in time trials or racing.
This strain can result from holding the head up to maintain visibility, maintaining a fixed neck position for extended periods, or improper bike fit leading to poor posture.
Over time, these factors can lead to discomfort, stiffness, and even injury in the neck and upper back muscles.
A proper bike fit, regular stretching and strengthening exercises targeting neck and upper back muscles, and adopting ergonomic riding techniques can help alleviate and prevent neck strain in cyclists.
