    What about a hand crank recumbent bike? That will give your legs a break and you can get a great cardio exercise out of it. Or you can borrow a friend's wheelchair and spin like crazy through the neighborhood.

    I thought about the hand crank at my club. My trainer, however, tells me that it is hard on the shoulders. As I am strength training 3 days a week right now, I am afraid of getting an over-use injury in my shoulders

    Thankfully things are improving, and I can start to ramp things up a bit. I may give that hand crank machine a little spin tomorrow after my training session just to see what it is like though.
