One week of rehab in the books. Actually did 1 mile on a bike this morning at a snail pace obviously.
That is about as exciting as rehab gets. Same exercises daily, just trying to get some mobility back. This Friday I get my stitches removed and next Monday I get to lose my "blood clot" stockings so that's a win..lol
Fall will be approaching and that will be the hardest. Its the prime running season. It sucks having to sit on the sidelines but I know it wont last forever.

Knitter215 is correct. I asked my exercise counselor the same question and she said either would give you the same results. Since you want to keep your heart rate between 115-125 for weight loss it doesn't matter which one you do. I like to mix it up to keep from getting board.
Recumbent bike and treadmill both are good for the workout. You should check out both uses & benefits then take the decision which is better for the workout. You can get ideas from here.
For Treadmill Benefits of Treadmill & Recumbent Bike Recumbent Bike Workouts for Beginners. I hope those will be helped you a lot to make the decision. Thanks

Today will begin the healing process.
Heading to Nashville in a couple of hours and having surgery at 3 cst.
Hopefully, with rehab, I will be back to exercising by January is what the doctor said. Until then it looks like crutches for a couple of months.
Everyone keep grinding.
I will check in periodically
