How To Train For Motocross When Your Knees Hurt Like Heck!

Ok, I guess this can be done easily with a mountain bike. There is always the low impact methods.The elliptical , stationary bike,

 but I want to focus on things you can do on the treadmill that are not as painful on the knees but give you a good workout.

See, I still like to go on the treadmill even though my knees are shot. I can't stand the stationary bike and the elliptical . This is for us east coast mx'ers who don't have full time good weather to just jump on our mountain bike and go for a ride. I should of moved west or south back when my knees were young.

This is actually good for anybody who has bad knees, east, west, south, or north looking to change up their routine. Here is a method I made for myself so I could workout and deal with my knee problems.

Treadmill Workout 1:

Start at speed 2.5 or 3 and put the height level to 3.0

warm up at this pace for 5mins. This is just a walk, very easy on knees.

After a 5 min warm up raise the height level to 5 and the speed to 3.5 or 4.0 do not go below this speed or above. Do this level for 1 min then raise the height to 6 and do for 1 min. Do this until you reach level 10 on the height of treadmill then go back to 5 on the height and do the process again. Repeat two more times this will take you to 23 min then go back to level 5 speed 2.5 or 3.0 and cool down for 5min. You never change your speed through the workout just the height. Give this baby a try. It is a good workout and you never have to run. Boy you will feel like you ran though, and your knees will thank you.

More workouts to come soon. Believe me, I have a ton of them and I'm always trying new ones.
