Rebuilding Cardiorespiratory Fitness After Injury With the Assault Bike

Why Conditioning Matters After Injury

Injury often leads to cardiovascular deconditioning, even if the injury itself is localized. Without rebuilding aerobic capacity, patients are more likely to:

• Fatigue early

• Re-injure

• Stall in rehab progress

The Assault Bike allows us to rebuild conditioning safely and progressively.

How We Use the Assault Bike in Rehab

At our Gaston County physical therapy clinic, we program:

• Zone 2 aerobic rides

• Short interval sessions

• Active recovery days

All customized to the individual’s injury, fitness level, and goals.

Cardio That Transfers to Life & Sport

Better cardiovascular fitness improves:

• Walking endurance

• Job performance

• Recreational sports tolerance

• Overall health

This is why we integrate Assault Bike conditioning into nearly every rehab plan.
