During my rehabilitation, one of the frustrating things was trying to keep my weak foot on the pedals of a normal exercise bike. Straps, velcro even good old duct tape didn't work. Pyro Platforms provide the benefits of clipped pedalling without the need for cycling shoes. Cycle cleats are attached to the rigid, size-adjustable platform enabling their use with clipped pedals. The platforms have a usable size range of size 5 - 12 and have a velcro tightening strap with an easy to hold D-ring strap.
Clipped pedalling has a real advantage in re-training leg function as initially the strong leg can lead the weak leg in learning the muscle movement. Additionally, clipped pedalling enables spin movement activating the hamstrings and gleuteals in addition to the quadriceps.
Pyro Platforms have a significant advantage in the physiotherapy environment as patient changeover can be accomplished very quickly with only minor adjustment time. Each patient can experience the advantages of clipped pedalling.
