YMCA Healthy Living Center member and FES cycle user, Amanda Schulze shares about her experience with the FES cycle:
“I have had MS for 7 years. Since I have used the FES cycle for 3 months I have been able to voluntarily flex my quads, glutes, and calves. I have regained sensation in the bottoms of my feet as well as seen gains in range of motion of my lower limbs. All of these noticeable changes were previously absent for the last 4 years before using the FES cycle. I used to be very athletic so I like the fact that I can get a great cardio workout. Actually, the first time I hit the 5 mile mark on the bike I cried because it was the first time since I used to run that I felt that endorphin rush again. It is amazing to be able to feel like that again!”
