My wife and I did a lot of Amazon Prime Yoga vids during lockdown. I am definitely feeling the benefits on the bike and in my other hobbies.
I have two bikes, the Cannondale, which I really don't like, puts a lot of pressure on my wrists. My Bianchi, which is an Endurance bike, reduces that pressure and is far more comfortable. Both for my back and more important for my wrists. I broke my wrist 50 years ago on a Motorcycle and it has begun to bother me in the past 10 years, so that reduced pressure really increases my ability to ride longer distances.
