I am goning to try my recumbant bike for one of my exercise periods. I had a hip replacement 6 years ago. That hip joint is very tight and walking even 15 minutes makes the hip muscles hurt a lot. I thought if I did the bicycle for 5-5-5 it would help restore some flexibility in both hips.

@marieb Of course I have had two TKRs, and my surgeon highly recommends the recumbent bike and water jogging. Prior to my knee replacement, I asked him about pre-surgery PT because I have heard some people benefit from it. When he heard what I was already doing he said that was perfect. At least when I am pedaling I can watch TV. Some people can read, but I can't.
