Spinning and your knees
| Mon, 02-14-2005 - 8:38am |
Hello - I have a question. I have never had problems with my knees and the past few weeks I have started a spinning class, has anyone ever had problems with their knees and spinning? I thought the bike was suppose to be good for your knees? But mine are killing me all of a sudden.
I also have been lifting more, more squats, lunges etc. I really almost 100% positive I am not doing them wrong, I do them in classes, with trainers and have been doing them for years and never had problems with my knees. So I am thinking it might be the spinning classes - any ideas????

if you had good form (keeping butt back over the seat, high resistance) the whole time it isn't dangerous, but i don't think it's advisable. it's better to work out different parts of your lower body. different resistances work different parts of your lower body. also, you don't get the speed work. or at least you shouldn't, because the resistance should be up too high to sprint if you are standing.
