I want to use the bike a bit with my girl, Ruby. She has bad hips (accordingto x-rays not behavior yet) and she ends up mostly sprinting in our back yard due to how shallow it is. I'd like to work in like 2 days a week of bike-jogging. I don't really want to take a walk around the block before we head out on the bike but I'm wondering if that or any kind of warm-up is in order???
I can also go to the park for more of an all-out run (vs short sprints in my yard) but want to mix it up for variety and different muscle useage...
I have had no success so far on getting her onto the electric treadmill I got - and tried to force her on last nite so that's probably going to be a big backtrack - ugh! I could keep working at that tho vs the bike since it's rubbery vs street-asphalt...
