Quadriceps Exercises with Stationary Bike

The quadriceps (quads) are a group of four muscles on the front of the thigh. They allow your knee to straighten and provide stability when standing. Your quads are the most important muscle group for maintaining the ability to stand and to walk independently. It is also believed that arthritis pain can be relieved by strengthening the quadriceps muscles which takes pressure off the knees.

The exercise bike is a low-impact, safe, and effective cardiovascular exercise. The low-impact movement involved in operating an exercise bike does not put a lot stress on joints and does not involve sporadic motions that some other fitness equipment may require. Most stationary bikes allow you to control the difficulty level and can be used for steady state cardio or interval training.
