Bike Fitting with Retul

A bike that is fitted correctly will increase your performance, comfort and enjoyment. The Retul 3D motion capture bike fitting system uses infra-red LEDS placed on the rider at specific biomechanical reference points. A 3D scanner measures the location of each LED 29 times per second whilst the rider is in motion and under load. The accuracy of each measurement is to within a millimetre.Typically the measurements are taken over a 15 second period from the side and the front simultaneously. The resulting data informs the fitter of the most realistic body position and pedal stroke the rider adopts whilst riding for real on the road or trail. Such detailed data enables the fitter to adjust and tailor your bike to fit your body's optimal biomechanical range. This reduces stress on joints and enables muscles to work with maximum efficiency.Unlike static fits this dynamic assessment gives feedback as to how the body reacts and interacts in biomechanical motion. This results in, quite simply, a better bike fit. British Cycling, the Sky cycling team, and many pro mountain bike riders and triathletes choose Retul as their bike fit system.

PEAK PERFORMANCE SPORTS MASSAGE

At Velo Schils Interbike we have a qualified professional Sports Masseuse. Anyone who is a fan of exercise should strongly consider massage therapy as part of an overall lifestyle choice. It is the perfect way to include stress relief in your exercise program. There are, however, other key benefits as well. Massage therapy, is actually a combination of several different techniques. The overall point of massage is to help muscles relax and relieve tension in the body. Some massage may not have immediate health effects. These deep tissue massages release fluids and tension within deep muscles. The effects are normally delayed, but the next day the general overall feeling is vastly improved. Other benefits include… Improved circulation and general nutrition of muscles. This appears to be the most valuable fitness-related benefit.  Massage is accompanied or followed by an increase interchange of substances between the blood and the tissue cells, which increases tissue metabolism.  1.Massage maximizes the supply of nutrients and oxygen though increased blood flow, which helps the body rebuild itself. 2.Improved range of motion and muscle flexibility. This results in increased power and performance, which helps you work efficiently and with proper intensity to facilitate the body’s muscle-building response. 3.Helps shorten recovery time between workouts. Waste products such as lactic and carbonic acid build up in muscles after exercise. Increased circulation to these muscles helps to eliminate toxic debris and shorten recovery time. 4.Can help prevent over-training. Massage has a relaxing effect on the muscles, as well as a sedative effect on the nervous system. This can prevent over-training syndrome, which has a limiting effect on muscle building. 5.Helps prevent and even heal injuries. By stretching connective tissue, massage improves circulation to help prevent or break down adhesions. Massage also influences the excretion of certain fluids (nitrogen, phosphorous, sulfur) necessary for tissue repair.
