About Me
I personally work with each client to help them achieve their individual athletic goals. My professional experience and unique approach will incorporate the body’s natural movement and limitations to your bicycle and lifestyle. I am fascinated by human function and biomechanics and my goal is, to get the body in a pain-free zone.

Numbness on Genitals
-
Numbness often appears as a symptom of compressed nerves and/or reduced blood flow in the perineal area.
-
Special nerves and blood vessels in the perineal area of men are responsible for the erection. If the blood supply to these is reduced or they are compressed for any extended periods of time, this can lead to reduced sexual performance. This process is reversible, as after a long period off the bike this process is usually reversed and the usual sexual performance returns.
- Caution! The problem can become chronicle. Numbness is an alarm signal! Those who listen to their body can minimize the risks so that the positive effects of training prevail. Cycling is a fantastic heart-circulation-training and hence improves sexual performance.
