    I just bought a recumbent bike. No more gym membership, my family is slowly building our own gym at home and it’s so exciting!

    I just purchased one today and expect it to be installed on Friday. Disabled veteran here who put on weight during covid and also got high blood pressure at that time. Now I am going to fight it.

    I prefer this bike than the other stationery cycle because of the back support and the seat is more comfortable.

    I just added a Recumbent Bike to my home gym and I LOVVVVVVE it! Wish I’d known how much I’d love it years ago! I don’t dread exercise using it and along with eating clean, I’m dropping weight so easily!

    I’m using the same bike after hip replacement feels great and think it’s definitely helping with my recovery.

    This is great. I was using mine with the seat too close. I adjusted it and wow what a difference. Felt it so much more in the best way. I’ve been following 20 minute interval routines on line and absolutely love it. It really is an underrated cardio machine. I also do 10-15 minute upper body workouts on TH-cam a couple times a week and I’m seeing great changes in my body and just feeling so much better and more fit.

    After 6 weeks of ACL reconstruction and meniscus repair surgery i can use this bike twice a day 👍

    My local gym has recumbents and they've been great training for XC mountain bike racing. I do intervals on them, but I actually set my seat a little closer to the bars than normal so that I can lean forward with my head looking down at my knees during the periods of intense effort. This simulates the attack position on a mountain bike during hard sprints where riders get low to maximize power on the pedals and to increase aero efficiency.
    The bikes my gym uses has a LCD display where I can go on "virtual rides" around various places in France. The resistance automatically changes depending on the incline. After a 1 mile warmup, I start alternating between 1 full mile at 70-80% effort, then a recover mile at 50-60%. I repeat this for the 1 hr workout duration set by the bike, followed by a short cool down segment where the bike automatically reduces resistance to beginner levels.
    It's a brutal workout -- especially on the quadriceps -- but it completely transformed my climbing game out on the trails.

    I am very deconditioned with severe fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue syndrome so I am buying one of these recumbent models. (Esp with hip bursitis and daily ankle swell/pain) thanks for tips and mentioning it's easy on joints!

    • @theelizardqueen
      @theelizardqueen 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I have fibro too. I love the recumbent bike. I recommend looking into CBDistillery brand CBD oil (I like broad spectrum) it has 0 thc. It makes it so I can walk my dog 30 minutes a day, get done all my errands, do all the housework. Sadly not enough to hold a job but gives me much more function!

    This is great, I have chronic arthritis and this is a good non-weight bearing exercise.

    • @WHU63
      @WHU63 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Mind me asking if recumbant bikes are friendly to people with low back arthritis. Is the seating position comfortable given that your legs are out in front.

  • @spindleblood
    @spindleblood ปีที่แล้ว +4

    This was really helpful thanks! I was worried about my seat distance being too close or too far. This bike is great for me because I tore my hip labrum and I'm having foot pain from lots of walking. The only down side to it is you aren't supporting your core because it's recumbent. So probably best to combine this one with other types of bikes or cardio equipment if you're able.

  • @seasonings2taste115
    @seasonings2taste115 6 ปีที่แล้ว +14

    I like this for cardio because I can jump right in with no warmup. I crank it to 17 (max is 21) and go hard af for 15 minutes. I’m always sweaty, and hit 4.2-4.5 miles consistently, with gradual increases.

    Hello. Thank you for the video. I have question that maybe you can help with. Do have a never used but older model Nortictrack recumbent bike. I have been looking for online classes for recumbent bike users only but I only find spin bike classes. Maybe I am just not finding the right places but really like if a TH-cam channel would offer recumbent bike classes. Plus using hand weights/resistance bands for upper body workout while riding our bikes. Just a thought but would appreciate some feedback. Thanks for your time! Jessica

  • @katerussell3680
    @katerussell3680 4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    I use this at my gym as it's better for my back since I had surgery. My only issue is... I slip forward and am constantly slipping forward on the seat. What do I do? Bear in mind it's at the gym and not my equipment. It has an adjustment to move the seat nearer or further but not to deep the actual seat. Any suggestions on how I can stick my butt to it are welcome? :D

    • @daniellee1722
      @daniellee1722 4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Place a towel at the seat (a medium sized one that isn't too thick but has a rough texture). That way it'll grip the seat and keep you in place

      I know what you mean. The one at my gym has the seat sort of facing downwards. I always feel like I'm slipping. I sit on a towel. It helps 🙂

    I have an issue with the seat on mine. It causes pressure on a place where you don’t want it! I am going to try sitting on a donut cushion. They should make a split seat like cyclists use.

    Let me start by saying thank you for your guide to a recumbent bike indoor trainer. With that said let me post up a couple of guide lines from an actual recumbent trike rider, one who puts thousands... yes thousands of miles a season on his road machine. I have posted a link below on finding the best starting point for setting you "X frame" pedal distance up. You'll have to fast forward through to the trike boom setup, or go ahead and watch the complete video if you like. I use this method on both my road trike and indoor recumbent trainer. Unfortunately the seat angle adjustment is not available on a good 98% of the indoor machines out there. IT SHOULD BE, as the seat angle and tilt of the base seat are vital to have for full comfort and full muscle use to get the watts on the road bed. Pedaling a recumbent in the correctly tilted and angled position is just as vital as the correct pedal distance. You can get more of your Quads, calf, and anterior shin muscles into the mix as well as a better core muscles input. Any how here's the pedal distance set guide. Maybe some day some trainer design engineer will have actually owned and ridden a road recumbent & design a proper seat for a trainer!

      Thank you Star Gazzer! I was just going to say the same thing after watching this video. There is more to being properly positioned in a recumbent bike than pedal distance. This guys knees are going too high above his hips. I a having a really difficult time finding a stationary recumbent bike that fits and does not cause pain over the long haul. Are there any you would recommend? Too bad ICE does not make one!
