3 fits in 5 years, including Scherrit in December, with a follow up in March this year. I've been seeing a cycling-specific physio with regularity for 10 months, and doing 45 minutes of stretching a day since October last year. I've recently changed my stretching regime, on advice of my physio, which is supposed to completely correct the problems with my hips and hamstrings which is causing my back pain.
Earlier this year I could ride 100km at pace, no problems. Now I can barely do 30. I'm now worried that all the physio's I've seen are missing something, and that all my stretching is in vain. It's properly doing my head in, as cycling is my proper relaxation, empty-your-mind, stress relief exercise and when that's causing me trauma I feel like I'm going to have a fucking breakdown.
I was thinking about going to Cyclefit, as they also get a good rep. However, I'm loath to spend even more money on fit and physio if they're not going to get it right / fix the problem. If I can't fix this within a year I'm just selling all my bikes and fucking it off.
