[QUOTE="Celeriac, post: 926377, member: 188243"] Pre-diabetes I went to a sports centre, which made me do a Harvard step test without warm-up and I strained a knee. It didn't bother me too much at first and I found another gym. The one mile walk warmed me up, I did a proper warm-up and then used Nautilus equipment. The knee got worse though and I ended up needing physio. I didn't put weight on, the exercises worked and I did Pilates instead. So now I'm thinking with winter approaching, after walking this summer, that I want to exercise indoors. I have found an exercise bike and a rowing machine but I am wondering which to buy first. I loved the rowing machine at the gym, but didn't care much for sitting on a bike. The bike is more compact and I can listen to music without getting tangled up in wires. Which would be easiest to start working on and which is least likely to injure me ? [/QUOTE]
