Numbness and Tingling...

[missxj]

I've noticed lately that after doing about 20 minutes or so of cardio on a machine, the bottoms of my feet start to go numb and tingle a little bit.
Could this be a result of bad shoes? Or poor circulation perhaps?
Thank you

It seems to happen in my right foot more than the left

does anyone have any ideas??

Extremities seem to develop neuropathy issues faster than any other place on the body. How long does the numbness/tingling last after you finish the cardio? Do you have numbness and tingling on leg workout days?

The numbness generally only lasts as long as I am using the machine. It diminishes very shortly after I get off and take a few steps. I have never experienced numbness or tingling any other time than during cardio work outs( which I do daily) It doesn't seem to make a difference whether it's a leg work out day or not.

I got this when I was using a bike for atleast 20 mins too, I think it's that your legs are moving constantly and mucks around with the circulation (upper body is completely relaxed) as when I go cycling with a road bike.. Even for 1 hour + there's no tingling.

But, I wouldn't be worried or anything to be honest it's not like you can't walk or your legs are numb for days. It's directly related to the cardio haha

Lactic acid build up makes ur feet or legs go numb , if ur on cycle u produce more lactic acid

Try different shoes. It's probably to tight.
