What strategies can help in building a positive body image through cycling?

Relentless pursuit of speed can distract from joy, true. But ditching competition entirely might be unrealistic for some. How about finding a middle ground? Embrace personal bests, not just podiums. This way, we can still strive for improvement while savoring the journey. #PersonalGrowth #CyclingCommunity ‍

I hear you on finding a middle ground between speed and joy. Personal bests can be rewarding, but let's not ignore the potential pitfalls. A fixation on personal bests might still lead to an unhealthy focus on results, not the experience itself.

Perhaps we should balance our pursuit of speed with mindful awareness, savoring the journey and our surroundings. This approach might even enhance our performance, as we reduce anxiety and tap into the zen of cycling. What are your thoughts on incorporating mindfulness into our cycling routine? #CyclingZen #MindfulPedaling ‍‍
