In my second week a new problem developed, knee pain 😕
Do you cycle a lot in heavy gears? I also used to do that, but it's better for your knees and also your endurance when you cycle in an easier gear, but with a higher frequency. A koffiemolentje 😉
Do you have a cadence meter? That is a useful gadget. I try to keep my cadence above 80 rotations per minute. Often in lower gears.

Is it a sensor that communicates but other equipment like a cycling computer? All I use now is my phone with strava and my Fitbit watch.
I think I now have a good cadence, but maybe I didn't do this in the early weeks I'm not sure... Most of the times I cycle in a low gear and I can't really get faster (which is mostly a good speed around 27 km/h) and sometimes when the wind is in my back I get one gear higher.
Today I did 55km for the first time breaking the 50 😊
