Exercise bike for glutes

Common Questions and Answers about Exercise bike for glutes

exercise

My left lower back hurts the next day after walking or peddling a bike. Hard to pinpoint the source as the whole area gets tight. The outer thin muscles are tight but I think its from very deep inside, as I can loosen the outer but its still tight very deep. Its not sharp, but very achy and tight, limits motion. Gets better if I stop taking walks or bike rides for 1 week, but comes back as soon as I resume mobile exercise. I hear runners get this? Anyone have some advice?
Gets better if I stop taking walks or bike rides for 1 week, but comes back as soon as I resume mobile exercise. I hear runners get this sometimes? Anyone have some advice? I used to be very fit and am familiar with most stretching. I have used myfacial muscle tension release (AKA Trigger point therapy) on myself with the Thera Cane and various tennis and golf balls- on the floor. I've searched all muscles for the point of pain origin, cant find it!
After the angioplasty procedures in 2008 and 2009, I used to get a similar chest discomfort a few hours after exercising (1hr / 20km bike ride or 1 hr walk / jog). Nuclear Stress Tests, Stress Echos etc. showed good heart functions but when my symptoms persisted I insisted on an angiogram which confirmed my RC Artery was plugging up. I expected that the CABG would have resolved the problem so I am concerned that the symptoms are still with me.
I have found that if I keep my heart rate under about 150 during cardiovascular exercise (not running - usually riding an exercise bike or using a stairmaster) and go no longer than about 30 minutes, I am okay. I still have some discomfort, but it is manageable. I can also do pushups, situps, chinups and dips for strength work without much difficulty. However, I cannot lift weights without the same kind of pain, or do Yoga, or swim.
Its been about 6 weeks now , i dont limp, i can ride a bike fine, it doesnt hurt at all(but i know its still there) and walking and swimming are no problem.i do hamsting exercises at the gym with light weights, it hurts but not bad it mostly feels weak. ive been stretching but i really want to run again. when i do run i cant get the stride back in the injured leg.
I've done martial arts, running, basketball, bicycling, and weight lifting and I have no strength whatsoever in my glutes. That's what I mean by learning later you're exercising incorrectly.
In the fall of 2005, I bought a new bike seat, clipless pedals and shoes, and went out on a long ride, tackling hills with vigor. After, my adductors, groin, etc, were very tight. A few days later, I rode again--for the last time. My adductors and groin hurt alot; for a few weeks, I could still run, but soon, I was unable to even run. After every run, my pelvis would completely tighten up, and I developed a catching/twanging sensation in my left hip socket.
I'm still in pain and unable to run or cycle. Walking is difficult. My doctor thinks my glute and piriformis muscles are overly tight and clamping down on my sciatic nerve, but no amount of stretches or muscle relaxers help. Was I mis-diagnosed or is this just something that will calm down with total rest. I'm thinking about trying accupuncture.
Years later I would have pt again and this one was better but still there were certain ones that my knee hated. The first physical therapist gave me knee extensions, leg curls, heel raises, and using the exercise bike. The second gave me step and reach (a modified version of lunges-- he believes lunges just make the pain worse), squats-- holding a weighted ball, a modified calf stretch using a specially folded pillow case, side stepping with a theraband tied around both my thighs.
There is a lot of referred pain in the low back from glutes, hamstrings, and thigh muscles and even lower leg muscles - remember, they connect to each other. I hope some of this helps you, dont give up on the pain!
When I have bad cramps, my chiropractor tells me to take a week off and do no exercises at all. I stated I do low intensity back exercises from a physical therapist and stretch daily.
Backside got the weight, you want to hit your Glutes so alot of uphill bike riding and squats. I hope all goes well for you, but as I said, if you have had any previous medical conditions consult a doctor before doing anything I have advised. God Bless.
My activity levels are getting better. I rotate my exercises daily (glutes and core) between kinesis machines, strength machines, bosu balance and exercise balls to keep the muscles confused and it's all working. I do get achey from more activity, but with rest over the weekend, I'm gaining more range of activity. I hope this info concerning an SI Belt, BC use and exericse is beneficial. Good Luck!
slight vibrating in the penis. read somewhere else that it could have been from over exerting your self while exercising. bingo, a day before I started to notice the vibrations I had done three sets of incline sit ups and did more per set than I have ever usually done. Hoping that this was the cause. going to try the magnesium if it does not go away...thanks to everboby who posted !!!
She also told me that she doesn't expect me to FULLY recover my strength and range of motion for about a year. My doctor told me that I should avoid doing any high-impact exercises like running, jumping, etc. because my hip is now more prone to injury. He also told me that about 1/3 of people with labral tears end up needing hip replacements within five years from the time they had the tear repaired.
It does not seem to be related to exercise since I can go for a run and feel nothing... but then I can be sitting and all of a sudden my calves (always both at the same time) start to ache and feel tight. Sometimes they feel so sore that I can almost not walk. Water seems to help on occasions. I can't understand why all of a sudden I may be becoming dehydrated so that doesn't seem logical... The aches come and go without warning and sometimes it's much worse than other times.
My pain started after a 2 week layoff from running and martial arts last fall. I stopped exercising altogether when I started having the spasms fearing it was an overuse injury. Pain was consistent until christmas when I had a good 2 weeks of rest. Pain came back on February. I started riding my bike on a trainer every 2nd day. It helps a lot. If I don't ride, I'm guaranteed to have some pain. My knee still feels weak and wonky but it beats having those pains.

So for what it is worth, I can trace my pain not to a mattress, not to my kidney function or other reasons - but specifically to doing 4 days of plank exercises with other basic exercises. I stopped the morning after noticing the pain but have still had it for the last 4 days, getting worse it seems each day - to the point that it takes all my effort to roll out of bed in the morning.
I can't believe how long it has taken to build up strength, but it has really helped. This exercise has changed my life. I can ride my bike 10 miles at a time and am taking a reform Pilate's class. Even though I am more active, my leg twitches less. You are all in my thoughts. I hope this helps.
Acupuncture and physio can not relieve my pain more than temporaraly. Physio has given me exercises and also tape strapping to keep me standing straight, not crouching. I have had a few spine stretching treatments with a machine - pulling lower back down whilst strapped to a table. Dry needling, Hydro therapy, Massage and looking at remedial massage currently. You name it - I feel like I've done it.
