You may also want to pay attention to how hard your gripping the handle bars and make sure to have a neutral position on your legs when coasting. These are 2 issues I ran into and it made a huge difference to how sore my body was. I was subconsciously death gripping the handles and would almost always have one leg fully extended when coasting that would cause me issues.
Good to know! I don't think I deathgrip them, but I'll try to be conscious of it on my next ride
