What is IT Band Syndrome In Cycling?
Iliotibial Band Syndrome (ITBS) is a common condition characterized by sharp lateral knee pain on the outside of the knee. The iliotibial band (IT band) is a thick band of fascia that runs from the outside of the hip down to the outside of the knee. It plays a crucial role in stabilizing the knee during activities like running, walking, and cycling.
Riding a bike for an extended period at a high cadence, such as 90 revolutions per minute (rpm), can indeed involve a large number of pedal strokes.
