So, week 2 is in the books. I do a lot of boring exercises at home...kicks, stretches, booty squeezes, pelvic tilt, leg squeezes..etc etc..
Have 1 more week of crutches..actually walking around a little at home around the house..but only chair to kitchen or living room to bathroom..
Sucks though..already gained a few pounds..trying to move some but only so much they want me to do..

Waaaay Late. Started a new jobs a couple of weeks ago - working part time at my health club at the front desk. Long story short, I think I'm starting my 3rd act and may leave practicing law. Started at the beginning of August and I'm loving the lack of responsibility.
Monday - fencing lesson and fencing
Tuesday - Olympic Lifting class
Wednesday - my knee hurts so bad from the front that's moving through, I'm not fencing tonight. I can count on one hand the number of times I've not fenced in 2 years.
Thursday - personal trainer 1 hour
Friday - Pilates
Saturday - Olympic lifting class
Sunday - Standing for 6 hours at work, with a short workout before.
Best wishes to all this week.

Keep on losing!

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
