Izzi asked:


I recently got an exercise bike because I don’t really have alot of time to go to the gym etc. It’s nothing too fancy but it has calories/pulse/time etc and different levels of difficulty. I tried using it but found I had no idea what I should be doing in terms of a regime and ended up just wearing myself out after a few minutes.

What would be the best routine/regime to follow? I’m pretty unfit so I need something that builds up gradually.

Thanks.

I recently lost about 45 pounds and am trying to lose the last 10… I was working out at a gym but can not anymore. Bought an exercise bike and this is what I am doing everyday to get started.. I pedal for 45 minutes equaling 13 miles, 280 calories and 90 fat calories. Of course plus eating right? Oh and I have added some hand weights. Is this sufficent to help.. or do you think I am just wasting my time with such a small workout? Thanks.

MamaRuf asked:


I ride the bike to loose calories. I am up to 40 minutes and 400 calories a day. Where do I go from here!!!

bored asked:


Why is it that when I use the elliptical at the gym I only burn about 250 calories every 40 min, but at home i burn about 500 in the sme amount of time? I use the same settings and work just as hard.

Does one burn more calories than the other? Any other advantages or disadvantages that you know of?

Thanks!

hi I just noticed that on my parents stationnary bike there is telephone-type input so i can connect it to the pc. I have already hear before of websites of applications capable of measuring your speed, calories burned, etc. on your pc screen. do you know any website or app supporting my Schwinn Airdyne stationnary bike ?

I use my exercise bike daily and i go steady pace for about 20 mins but with a treadmill I walk/jog an burn more calories but my legs dont hurt much atol after or burn like they do with the bike so is the bike best for toning legs? and treadmill best for losing fat? If my legs feel slightly stiff after everytime I peddle is this ok? and will tone up fast?

stevenrfranklin asked:


Is there much difference in calories burned, quality of exercise or comfort? The bicycle will be used for general weight loss and fitness purposes, not hardcore training.
