Exercise Bikes & Why You Need Them?
"Exercises have never been so easy" I know what you are thinking. But it's really is so.
I used to think the same. Even before lockdown, when everything was the same for me. You can't blame - I am a homebody.
Forget about following a routine, I never even liked spending long hours outside. Hence, the lockdown provided us (people like me - lazy bums) the perfect opportunity to continue doing the same work. Sit and gain and gain and gain and before I realized, I was gaining 80 kilos - that's 177 lbs. My point is...
Motivational posts or videos can only do so much if you lack the intent. That's when I decided to end this monotony. No, I didn't start watching those videos or saved any posts. Instead, I looked for mean machines that can help me to get rid of everything. My friends then suggested me to invest in a good exercise bike that will help me shed all the negativity.
I was looking mainly for two things:
Display: That will show me my gains (keep me rooted to the seat), heart-rate monitoring, and other basic stuff like calories burnt and resistance level, etc.
Safety/Resistance: The machine is sturdy enough and should not wobble when I push my limits. Another thing is its resistance. It should support multiple intensity levels.
A good exercise bike is not that easy to find. Especially if there are plenty of options and all looking similar in covering basic functionalities. After plenty of research, I found the one (actually 18). They are selected versatile bikes to suit your different yet specific needs. It's been a week and I've already shed around 3.5 - 4 kilos.
Homebody or not, it's a 'money well spent' scenario in case of a good exercise bike. You can buy them here.
Avoid following things and gaining some will make you see progress, sooner than later:
- No skipping hands (from handle) or routines.
- An increase in resistance will increase efficiency.
- Skip additional weights (dumbbells or bars). For maximum gains, the core should be perfectly stabilized.
