Workout Questions



Recommended Posts

I have two questions or things I would like advise/opinions on.

1. Stationary Bike - I have a dual action stationary bike and I love it. I plan on upgrading someday to a newer bike or an elliptical. However, my issue now is that it hurts my butt so bad! I am good for the first half our and then the pain kicks in. Does anyone have suggestions for seat modifications or aftermarket seats that I can try? There is no way that I am alone in this issue. What has been tried that works? Epic fails?

2. Most times after a workout I do not have time for a shower right away. Does anyone know of a brad of wipe that can clean me up a bit after a hard workout? I have baby wipes and wonder if there is something better or do these work well? Again, what works? What has failed?

Thank you so much for your input. It is really appreciated!

Sorry you're having such pain on the stationary bike - ouch. I had that with me road bike and bike shorts helped; the ones with gell in the seat - and I got the most bell-filled ones I could find!

Wipes - I love the ones called "Yes to Cucumber" which have a nice cleaning effect and a fresh clean scent but it disappears quickly and isn't sweet or flowery. Drug stores and Target carries them.

Keep on spinning!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
