Is spinning bike bad for knees
Basic Info
As long as the amount of exercise is not too much!
There is no need to worry too much about this, because in real life, the possibility of knee injury after riding a spinning bike is relatively small, and it even has the effect of exercising the ligaments and tendons around the knee joint. Therefore, whether there is knee injury or not, the most important issue is time and intensity. If you have symptoms of knee discomfort, you need to go to the rehabilitation department or acupuncture department for treatment in time, take the medicines prescribed by the attending doctor on time, insist on traditional treatments such as knee acupuncture, massage, wax therapy, reduce standing and walking time, and rest more. If you have symptoms of knee discomfort, do not ride a spinning bike for the time being, otherwise it is easy to aggravate the clinical symptoms. Riding a spinning bike has the effect of exercising the lower limb muscles, so if you don’t have any symptoms of knee discomfort, you can engage in this physical exercise activity without worrying too much.
As one of the most effective ways to lose fat, spinning bikes can burn calories while sweating and venting stress with music. It can be said that as long as you try it once, I believe you will be addicted to it.
Spinning bikes imitate outdoor cycling
Spinning bikes were first created by American personal trainer and extreme athlete JOHNNYG in the 1980s. It is a unique and vibrant indoor cycling training course that combines music, visual effects, etc.It mainly imitates the characteristics of outdoor cycling. Through the change of resistance, it simulates outdoor sections, such as steep slopes (high resistance), flat ground (medium resistance), downhill (low resistance) and other road conditions. According to your own ability, adjust the intensity appropriately and complete a class of cycling step by step.
Unlike ordinary bicycles, spinning bikes are more inclined to the role of fitness auxiliary tools. By setting the resistance, the purpose of strengthening the lower limb strength can be achieved; by increasing the heart rate, fat consumption can be accelerated; and the pedaling frequency can be adjusted by the speed of the music. Therefore, many people who want to lose weight are keen on spinning bikes.
Can the knees withstand riding a spinning bike?
Recently, more and more news reports have been reported about people who have ridden a spinning bike for a month in the gym and sweated profusely. Although the weight loss effect is significant, the knees are so sore that even climbing stairs becomes difficult...Many people can't help but ask, can the knees withstand riding a spinning bike?
In fact, any exercise will put pressure on the knees and wear out the knees, and incorrect and unscientific riding will cause damage to the knees.
Studies have found that the loads on the hip, knee, and ankle joints of the lower limbs when riding a spinning bike are relatively small, but various injuries still exist during riding. Most scholars believe that high-frequency knee and hip flexion, left and right swaying of the upper body during riding increases the load on the meniscus of the knee joint, the seat is too low or too far forward, and the pedal clip is not in the right position, etc. are the main causes of knee joint injuries.
Therefore, there is no exercise that will definitely hurt your knees. There are only scientific or inappropriate exercises, and whether the intensity is reasonable. Scientific exercise is a good medicine.
How to protect your knees in a spinning bike? Here are some suggestions for you.
Don't pedal desperately. The process of losing weight should be gradual. Don't pedal desperately, which will not only be of no help to your weight loss plan, but also make your knee joints bear several times more load than your own body weight.Don't follow the rhythm blindly. In the spinning class, the coaches are leading the rhythm, and the students are shouting wildly to create an atmosphere, which can easily make you exceed your sports limit. However, if you are a novice and have a weak sports foundation, once you accidentally exceed your sports limit, sports injuries are very close to you.
Pay attention to warm-up training. To put it bluntly, spinning bikes are a kind of resistance exercise. It is best to do some muscle strength training for the thigh muscles, gluteal muscles, waist and back muscles, calf muscles, etc. before riding a bike, otherwise weak muscles are very easy to be strained in fast-paced and high-intensity exercises.
Adjust the seat height Before riding, be sure to follow the product instructions to adjust the seat height to the most suitable for you. As the saying goes, sharpening the knife does not delay the chopping of wood. As long as the seat height is appropriate, it will be more convenient for the healthy flexion and extension of the knee joint, and achieve twice the result with half the effort. Moreover, you must master the correct riding posture and prohibit ghost-like dancing, otherwise it will be strange if you don’t get injured.
No talk about knee joint injuries If you have had knee injuries before and are still in the recovery period, and your stability is weak, it is recommended that you do not practice spinning.
Spinning gives you the illusion of weight loss
Many people come to the spinning area to sweat profusely because "spinning bikes lose weight quickly".Indeed, a 40-60 minute spinning bike course can consume about 500-600 calories, or even higher. But everyone must not form a misunderstanding: the more you sweat, the more effective weight loss.
Many gyms have separate spinning areas, and the windows are closed all around, making it airtight. The temperature in the classroom is higher than other places in the gym. In addition, the spinning classes are often grand, with dozens of people taking classes together, dancing wildly, shouting wildly, and the carbon dioxide concentration is very high, just like a sauna.
In this environment, you will sweat profusely just by pedaling a spinning bike. But this does not mean that you have a weight loss effect. Sweating a lot and losing weight quickly may be water, not fat. To achieve real fat loss, you must not only proceed step by step and work hard, but also cooperate with some strength or equipment training.
In short, as long as you pedal a spinning bike scientifically, you will not "shake" your knees. It is not only a weight loss exercise, but also a pleasant exile of the soul.
