What is a recumbant bike?

The only kind they have at my gym are the short ones where your sitting at the same height as the peddals and the tall ones I can adjust the seat, but I cant get my leg over the hump in the middle. it hits almost at crotch level. kinda annoying.

Recumbant is I believe the first bike you described. The seats have backs on them and your legs on the pedals go forward, not down.

Hope that helps.

Howdy, BTW.

I haven't bid on any of it, I just thought it was cool.

So, I feel all decked out now. I got me a helmet today. Found one at Sears for $4.99 +tax. It's a juvinile helmet, but it fits me fine, so I figured it would work. Lol. If it's a problem later then I'm only out 5 bucks...

I need to upload pix of my bike, so you can all see her hotness.

BTW, Daddy, there is a town here in Missouri called Licking. It's awesome. There is a prison tehre. ha.

49 degrees and rainy on Thursday means all of the snow will melt....

50 degrees and mostly sunny Friday means I get to ride Big Sexy.

It's supposed to be 64F today and 72F tomorrow. I'm so excited! As soon as I get home from work I'm taking my bike out for a public spin... Please pray I don't crash in front of anyone!

PS. I was GOING to post pics last night of the bike, but damn photobucket wasn't working for me. I'll try again later tonight.

I'm going to be in MI on Friday too, thanks for the weather update. That means I get to ride... I'm singing that like RI-eyed. I get to RI-eyed!

My new sunglasses came yesterday, with two jerseys....I heart Women's Sunglasses (Bargain Barn) at Sierra Trading Post - Save 35-70% on Famous Name Brands very much.

Now if my ass would stop hurting! I pulled something when shoveling snow on Saturday. It was getting better but then this morning when I got out of the car I had shooting pain again! Ouch mother effer!

Oh, and BTW,

Yesterday I had a killer workout. I ran for the first time since the 5K, which is a solid 3 weeks. I sprinted even for the last two minutes. My calves were on fire when I got off the treadmill, but all I could think is that I'm going to kick some hills this season on my bike!

I kept on and did my serious cross fit strength training for the day too. All of it with added decline bench abs! Did I tell you I jump rope? I do that between sets to keep my heart rate up. I jump around 300 times! I want to get that up to a solid 10 minutes.

Okay, seems like the exercise blues and winter blahs are lifting!!!!

And this is from a girl with a owey butt! Woo hoo, come on SPRING!

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
