Froome's training for 2022 halted by knee injury
Four-t🦋ime Tour de France winner off the bike for a week

168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Chris Froome (168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Israel Start-Up Nation) says he has encountered a setback in his early season training. Suffering from knee p📖ain which he attributes to training too hard, too soon after his offseason break, the Briton says he will hav꧒e to take a full week off the bike.
Froome, a four-time 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Tour de France winner, explained on his personal YouTube channel tha𝓀t he is having pain caused by inflammation of his tensor fascia latae, a small muscle that attaches to the iliotibial band and is involved in hip flexion, abduction, and internal rotation as well as knee flexion and la🃏teral rotation - movements that are all crucial for cycling.
"For the last ten days or so I've been getting quite a lot of pain on the outsid♔e of my knee while I'm pedaling," F😼roome says while touching his right knee. It is the same leg where he fractured the femur in his dramatic crash while reconnoitering the Critérium du Dauphiné time trial in 2019.
"The scans have basically sh🌳own that I've damaged my TFL tendon (sic), which is where the IT ba🌱nd connects on the side of the knee.
"Unfortunately I think getting back into training these past couple of weeks I might have been a little bit too keen, pushing a little too much. This was after a few weeks off the bike and maybe the body wasn't re📖adyꦅ to push that hard. It's flared up and caused a bit of inflammation."
Froome has not been able to get back to the level that won him seven Grand Tours si🤡nc🗹e his crash but the 36-year-old said he hoped to get back to a competitive level in 2022.
The knee injury will keep Froome from ramping up his training for the next few we♐eks, and has made his early s🔯eason racing plans uncertain.

"It's quite sensitive. I have to take the best part of a week🦄 off the bike completely before starting very gradually without loading it for the best part of two to three weeks after that," Froome says.
"It's def🌠initely a setback for me. I'm not too sure where I'm going to start the racing season. This is definitel♔y going to push everything back slightly.
"It's unfortunate but I'm going to have to make the best of it and keep working on things that I can work on off the bike - make sure to do a lot of core work, st🌞rengthening muscles I can work on without stressing that tendon further."
