Is Recumbent Cycling Machine the best for me?
I was never a very active & healthy teenager so as I grew older fitness became a bigger issue. I started playing Cricket two years ago and every time I play, my legs hurt like hell. I initially thought that it would get better but it is actually getting worse.
I have been stretching my legs but I have been told by some senior sports people that I also need to strengthen my core & leg muscles. I have started some exercises to strengthen my core and now need to buy something to strengthen my legs.
I have been advised to buy a Recumbent Cycling Machine (for indoor use) to strenthen my legs, specially the lower part of the legs (chin, calf & surrounding muscles). The problem is that these muscles still hurt a lot when I run. So is it the best idea to buy this machine or is there any better solution.
Many thanks for your help in advance.
i am not a physical therapist so i can’t comment on whether there is a better solution or not. having used a recumbent bike at the gym i can definitely say that it’s my favorite cardio equipment and that using it it should strengthen your shins and calf area. as you get stronger you can increase the resistance on the machine to keep getting stronger.
good luck with whatever you decide to do
