“It’s a nice change from the other water aerobics classes I’ve taken. They are good for people with joint issues, which I have. I may never be able to ride a bike on land again, but I can ride these!”
Stefanie Schotzko (Sioux Falls, SD) You could call it spimming – a hybrid of spinning and swimming using a water-ready bike called the Hydrorider. Hydroriding started making waves just a few weeks ago when Sanford Wellness Center became the first location in the region to offer the class. The Hydrorider is designed for group exercise, physical therapy, personal training, special populations and athletic training. Plus it’s a user-friendly bike that is perfect for any age, athletes and beginners. “There are only five adjustments to make the bike fit you. The seat looks tiny, but it holds all sizes,” says Maureen Keeley. “What a blast!” she continues. Biking in water provides buoyancy which supports joints and protects those with special medical concerns such as arthritis. Working out in water also allows training at a greater level of intensity due to the cooling effect and it provides recovery at a faster rate. “I like riding the bike with its soft seat while powering those leg muscles as you pedal against the resistance of the water,” says Bunnie Wirt. “It feels like you are almost floating above your seat! I also enjoy the great exercises you can do on the bike, like sit-ups with your feet hooked in the handle bars! What a ride!” For more information about the Hydroriders class, contact the Sanford Wellness Center at (605) 328-1600.

Sanford Birthday:
July 1979 Physician Spotlight Dr. Lloyd Solberg, MD, PhD, FACC, CardiologistSanford Clinic Heart Partners You’ve been a pioneer in cardiology care in the Midwest. Tell us how you came to Sioux Falls and Sanford Clinic Heart Partners.Part of it was having some roots in Wisconsin. As a child, I would spend summers with my uncle on his farm, so I had a little rural America experience as well as big city experience. Growing up in big cities like Chicago, I found the commute terrible. We put a list of priorities together, and part of it was quality of life. Instead of going to the east coast, we went to Rochester for my residency. We liked the small community and being close to Rochester. Sioux Falls was just an opportunity at the time. They had done their first open heart in 1978, and I came in July of 1979 to set up the private practice cardiology. It went from there. I got a partner, Dr. [Charles “Pat”] O’Brien who is now president of the hospital. Since 1979, what’s the biggest change you’ve seen?Dramatic growth. When I came, there was one cath lab. Everything has changed from the size to the capacity. The therapeutic modalities have changed. We did our first angioplasty here in June 1981. I’m one of the few people in the world who’s done more than 10,000 angioplasties. As you move toward your 29th year at Sanford, and work on plans for the Sanford Heart and Vascular Hospital, how do you see that benefiting patients?What I see in that building is a confluence of all things cardiology, so people have a single place to go to… They have physicians’ offices and a lot of things that used to be inpatient will be outpatient. Also, the thing about the central location of the Sanford Heart & Vascular Hospital is that it’s accessible to all the Sanford subspecialties. That makes it better for overall patient care because patients can rapidly access other subspecialties. You’ve put your hobby of architecture to use in developing a hotel/water park project north of Sioux Falls.I’ve lived in Wisconsin, trained in Illinois, went to school Minnesota, and I wouldn’t trade any of it for Sioux Falls. It’s got everything you would want. The growth of Sioux Falls is exponential, but some of the things the city needs I would like to augment. I would like to have a draw, more of a tourist trade and add to the amenities. I look at this as a community development project. It’s a hotel, indoor waterpark, and it provides those amenities. Hear more from Dr. Solberg and his newest procedure for closing a hole in the heart, at www.sanfordhealth.org. For more information on Dr. Solberg, contact Sanford Clinic Heart Partners at (605) 328-2929.
