Exercise bikes can provide an excellent workout. Although cycling indoors might seem boring, exercise bikes allow you to concentrate on your workout while freeing you from concerns about weather, potholes or being knocked off by cars.

If you’re looking for a simple piece of exercise equipment you can use without preparation at any time, consider an exercise bike. These machines give your legs a workout, improve your general cardiovascular fitness, and help boost weight loss. Your leg muscles are the largest in your body, so exercising them will improve your performance across a variety of disciplines – including walking and running.

A few sessions a week is fine, (start slowly) with a gentle warm up. Increasing the resistance and time every few weeks, will make your heart stronger and you’ll be able to walk or run for longer distances, without getting out of breath.

Always wear loose fitting light clothing, start slowly (little and often is best), be sure to keep well hydrated and set yourself targets and keep a record. Warm down with some slow pedalling after each session.
