This week on exercise bike:
– 37.9 miles
– 2.7 hours
– 700 Arm rolls
The exercise bike is correcting my arthritic knees in ways I didn't think possible. When I first started riding, my knees (mostly right knee) would hit the center bar sometimes. I positioned my feet differently and just pushed on, making adjustments with my feet and legs when I could. It doesn't do this anymore. Not only because I'm positioning myself better on the bike, but also because my knee is repositioning itself it a better way. It's noticeable when I walk and stand. And I'm mostly cycling without any tension. I think it's just the repetitive cycling motion that makes the difference.
