View Full Version : Trainers and frame stress

I just got a fluid trainer for Christmas - yeah!

I was on it today, actually got a much better workout then I expected. Put my new Rolling Stones DVD on the tube and rocked! I noticed though that the bottom of the frame was moving left to right quite a bit. Not sure if it's just sway or twisting. I hope I'm not putting too much stress on the frame. Has anyone had any experience with this? Should I worry?
