Physiotherapist Neill Stanbury from Australia joins the show this week to dive into his specialty which is complex asymmetrical motion patterns and injuries. As a bike fitter, Neill encounters extremely difficult cases where cyclists have experienced significant pain, injuries, and developed issues and complications due to the asymmetry. He discusses how issues manifest itself on the bike, the brain's involvement in the process, and also his treatment methods. The episode is broken down into a few main topics: 1.) Body Asymmetry and the Impact in Cycling 2.) Treating Leg Length Discrepancies and Asymmetry (case discussions) 3.) Structural Leg Length Discrepancy vs. Functional 4.)

He has been fitting for around 10 years and has a special interest in complex asymmetrical motion patterns and injuries. His interest in bike fitting came about after suffering from severe knee pain on the bike and attempting to overcome the problem with conventional fitting philosophies. After struggling to achieve any improvement with three separate bike fits, he set out to solve his own challenging problem and became deeply interested in the complex biomechanics and problem solving involved in high-level bike fitting. After running his cycling-specific Physiotherapy clinic for a decade in Melbourne, Australia, Neill has just recently moved further north to Brisbane and is currently conducting fitting sessions by appointment out of Cam's Cycling Collective in Bowen Hills. Neill has trained with world-renowned bike fitter Steve Hogg and specializes in all forms of complex asymmetries, as well as cycling overuse injury management.
