Semi-recumbent ergometer: Back-friendly training

A semi-recumbent ergometer, also known as a recumbent bike , is a specialized fitness machine for endurance training. It features a semi-reclining seating position. Compared to a conventional ergometer, it offers a comfortable, padded seat with a backrest that supports the lower back and promotes an ergonomic training posture. The pedals are positioned further forward, allowing the legs to pedal forward rather than vertically downward. This design makes training particularly gentle on the back and joints.
