Since we all know how to ride a bike, the information here is based on correct pedaling because many of us can improve our technique.
The maximum force that can be applied to your bicycle pedals when you are seated is your body weight. Is this important to know? If you want to go faster with less effort, the answer is YES. What's the best way to maximize the application of our body weight to the pedal? After ensuring you have the correct bike frame size, you need to place the bicycle seat at the right position over the bottom bracket and at the right height. This provides you with the position to apply muscle tension when applying body weight instead of muscular effort.
Another important element is to understand when and how long to apply your body weight to the pedals. You'll be amazed on how much faster you can pedal using less effort.
