BerkelBike recumbent bike: The recumbent bike that could help the disabled to regain their independence
Cycling is so much fun and it is an exhilarating, heart warming exercise which can also provide you with a complete workout. Pedalling down that green slope on a bright and breezy morning can lift the spirits of the gloomiest of us. It is unfair to restrict this wonder exercise only to the able bodied people. It is with this in mind that BerkelBike recumbent bike was designed. The design of the BerkelBike recumbent bike is such that it is effectively a hybrid of a handcycle and a recumbent bike.
BerkelBike recumbent bike has been designed specially for the physically disabled people. Even people suffering from spinal cord injuries can successfully ride this recumbent bike and also ride themselves into better health.
The BerkelBike recumbent bike is unique in that it allows movement for both hand and leg together. This is a great advantage indeed for those of us who are unable to any form of exercising with our legs due to some disability.
A recumbent bike generally does not come with a hand cranking setup, hence it only offers partial exercising to the body. However, BerkelBike recumbent bike has avoided this pitfall by combing a handcycle with a recumbent bike. Passive cycling movements are started by the legs the moment one starts hand cranking this recumbent bike. For people with a spinal cord injury a software box can be mounted on the recumbent bike to control the muscles of the leg thereby allowing them to actively contribute to the propulsion. This way both hands and legs pump together in coordination.
The benefits provided by the BerkelBike recumbent bike are immense. It effectively increases the blood flow to the leg thereby providing strength and self-repairing capability to the under used leg tissue. This recumbent bike is also a great way of increasing the muscle mass in the leg which could otherwise become totally wasted due to prolonged disuse. Diabetes and other cardiovascular diseases which are common amongst people, who do not or are unable to exercise, can be easily prevented by a daily workout on this recumbent bike. Improved mobility of joints, better digestion and an overall improvement in ones quality of life and spirit can be achieved by the regular usage of this wonder bike. As a means for overall exercise by the physically challenged this recumbent bike has no competition, it is simply the best way of achieving fitness while still on the wheelchair.
Not only is the BerkelBike recumbent bike great for the overall fitness of a disabled person’s body, it can also work wonders to his self esteem. This recumbent bike can provide mobility much beyond the usual wheelchair thereby enabling the physically challenged people to retain quite a level of independence in fulfilling their day to day needs. The BerkelBike recumbent bike also comes with the option of being attached to the regular wheelchair. The front portion of this recumbent bike can be easily affixed to any wheelchair thereby increasing its flexibility and utility even more.
