Riding PoorlyIs It Medical? (Introduction)


You are feeling that you don’t have the power in cycling that you think you should. Or you feel that it takes you longer than usual to get going, if you can get going at all. Or it takes longer to recover from training or racing.


This doesn’t seem to be a temporary set-back. It’s been going on for more than two weeks.


This handout presents an overview of possible explanations, with an emphasis on medical problems you may want to consider in consultation with your doctor.
