Thanks! Just bought my recumbent bike! My pt recommended one to ease my walking. And I do have bone on bone knees. Great reassuring information 😊

Is this stationary bike excercise advisable for knee osteoarthritis with severe knee pain and stiffness for 70 years old woman.

[@More4Life]

In general, I would say yes. However, you'd need to adjust the parameters to your comfort level such as how far forward the seat is (how far the knee bends), how fast you pedal, how long you do it for, can you go all the way around or do you need to start with half revolutions back and forth, etc. But the intensity of the exercise can usually be adapted even with severe knee arthritis. Use common sense though and ask your doctor or physiotherapist if you're unable to do it without causing pain.

It's a Life Fitness commercial model bike. I think this particular model is discontinued, but I linked to similar products in the description.

will this be good for stroke patients who are trying to walk again can they gain strengh from this?

[@More4Life]

Yes, it would be. Clear it with their doctor first just because if they've had a stroke, you want to ensure they're cardiovascularly safe to exercise.
