I like workouts that enable me to get an cardio exercise with upper-body muscle tissues. My favourite upper-body exercise, strolling with hand weights is impaired considerably at the moment as a result of my sore SI joint limits the size of my walks. My PT facility had a machine that allowed me to arm-cycle which I loved, and I believed it could be good to breed this at dwelling. My recumbent train bike places the pedals in a fairly perfect place when it’s laid on its again. I attempted it out and bought a very good exercise, however gripping the pedals by hand wasn’t too snug. This was simply fastened with a dowel, as proven within the footage.

I can get a pleasant upper-body exercise with this setup. I can simply cruise at a straightforward tempo or make it as exhausting as I need by throwing in some intervals. Right here is a video displaying arm biking. That is now an satisfying addition to my upper-body routine.
