i can't do anything per se about back pain (unless it relates to a badly positioned cyclist on a bike), velozoom can't do anything either as regards back pain, but then neither of us two have suggested we can (or at least not to my knowledge). and we don't know that you can either at present.
That is true, you don't but I know and so will all the back pain
victims that it works for, so what will it matter whether anyone
else believes it or not. I am seeking the worst possible back
pain victims, let the best specialists in back pain have a go at
doing something for them first and let us see what hope they
have of ending the pain. Of course if you can completely
eliminate the pain of the worst victims, it clearly follows 99 per
cent of back pain can be eliminated. There will always be an
exceptional case. The difference in transferring this technique
to back pain victims and ordinary Rob Coapman style riders is
that they would approach it with a positive outlook while
Coapman would be negative. As this technique is 99 per cent
mental, this plays an important part.
That was why it was impossible to copy and probably impossible
for Anquetil to pass it on to other riders.
