Agreed, I was watching Wiggins do his TT in the Giro on Saturday and he appeared to be snaking from the hips down whilst everything from there up remained still!
This isn't exactly a revelation though is it? It's why a strong core is so important 'strong' back, strong core provides a platform for the muscles from the glutes down to do their job most efficiently.- 2023 Vielo V+1
