Indoor Cycling Instructor

Answer: D - Correct adjustment of a participant’s bike is important for each of the reasons listed in this question. With safety in mind, a poorly adjusted bike can lead joint injuries, as well as back, core, and upper body soreness and even injuries. A poorly adjusted bike will also be uncomfortable, and may encourage a participant to sit incorrectly and use poor cycling form, thereby increasing the risk of injury. Incorrect fit can also lead to inefficient pedaling, which may cause the participant to misconceive the level of effort of the workout or pedal in an unbalanced and dangerous position.
