Question: Exercise bike?


Question Description:
I would like to know of some good brand of exercise bikes that are available worldwide..and how many minutes should I spend on it to lose @ least 300 calories per day

Answer#1: There are lots of brands for exercies bikes. Google for them.One word of caution: The electronic displays on the bikes that show speed, distance, calories per hour, calories burned, etc. are very inconsistent between brands. I have seen one brand report as much as 4 times the calories burned as reported by another brand for the same workout.To calculate calories burned, look at www.bicycling.com and click the "training" tab. It has a calorie calculator that is usually very close to my friend's Polar heart monitor for the same ride.


Answer#2: I think it's more effective and fun using a real bike.... they actually turn out cheaper too.You can explore and adventure with a real bike! =DGood makes for road bikes:Specialized, Scott, Trek,


Answer#3: get an eliptical bc you only have to spend like 30 min to burn that!! and plus to me they are much easier but still make you burn a sweat!
