Regardless of the reason, using too much resistance on an indoor cycling bike is not good for the muscles, joints, or an effective workout.

Excellent information Tom! I tell my class to greet resistance as their friend because beginners tend to be afraid of applying too much. Of course the regulars will go overboard. This will give them a way to gauge just how much is too much.
Thanks!
I always look for ways to tell my riders the basics in a new and fresh way. I’ve been teaching for many many years now and really dislike it when I sound like I’m repeating myself. I’m off to teach in a few minutes and will use this! Thanks, Tom!
