⚠️ Common rider tip that causes problems: “push heels out” or “turn toes in.” All this really does is twist the foot/ankle into an uncomfortable position and loads the outside edge of the foot. Do the same movement on the floor as you do in the saddle and see how foot rolls out. 👉 Instead, think about gently rotating the knee in and the lower leg out (with a relaxed foot). This way, the rotation comes from the hip and thigh - not just the ankle. That small change: ✔️ Lets the foot sit naturally
