Answer
women often develop knee pain when they begin excercising and sometimes the pain is chronic. one of the reasons for this is a strength imbalance between the quads and the hamstrings. Usually in women the hamstrings are stronger than the quads which puts greater pressure on knee tendons, joints, etc. This happened to me when I started running and doing the eliptical. A physical therapist friend of mine told me to ride the stationary bike for excercise. I did what she suggested and in just a couple of months my knee pain was gone and that was five years ago and not once have I had any problems with my knees at all. I still ride my stationary bike when I'm at the gym, but I bought a real bike and ride all the time now. I love it.

Treadmill and Exercise bike?
Q. Hello I'm trying to lose weight, which I lost 60 lb already. I walk on the treadmill for an hour at 3mph speed then I run on it for 3 minutes at 5mph. I recently purchased a exercise bike to lose more weight. Is riding the bike 15mph for 10 minutes enough you think?
Answer
well what i would suggest is still do the walking and jogging because its the best exercise you can do to lose weight, but if you want to do your bike as well im not to sure what the difference is between the amount of calories you burn but i know cycling focuses on your quads. so what you can do build muscle from the exercise bike in your legs then start jogging for longer and keep increasing it.
