    whatever you will actually do is the best. Treadmill is better just walk at 4% incline at like 4mph for 30-40mins pwo and u wil be ok or if u want use the bike i use both bike is hamstring dominant though if u use the recumbant(sit down) bike.

    Nope, you do not use your upper body musculature as you do with the treadmill.
