Taylor does yoga
I find yoga very helpful. Came across this today. These are some very good, cycling-specific yoga poses. Winter's a great time to balance out our bodies.

thank you climb pal.
A while back, some pal here posted a link to Abi Carver's youtube videos. Ever since then, I have been doing her 15-min routine designed for cyclists at least once or twice a week, it's been really really beneficial and impactful. I can see a lot of similar-type exercises/poses there and Taylor's. Admittedly, I do find perhaps Abi's poses a bit less intimidating, or easier to attain for a novice. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fmeSuYVEoio

yoga's good stuff.
been doing it since college (40+ years)...at 65, my flexibility is noticeably better than most of my age-peers. can still bust a headstand and plough pose with no effort. people get all weirded about the name, just call it 'stretching' if that makes it more palatable... |

I'd like to see a climber/light weight rider in this same position. That musculature looks less than ideal for going up hill.

In my limited experience-6 months or so-yoga seems to give both an instant and a lasting benefit. |

Real men ride steel bikes, play golf with steel shafted clubs, do yoga shirtless, and don’t grab no pussycats.
Seriously, though, yoga is great for you. Ashtanga is my poison. |

I've saved the routines you guys posted. I need this. My hips got so tight from training by last year's 508 that I was sitting on the rivet all the time. |
