What are Stationary Bikes?
Stationary bikes are exercise machines that mimic bicycles without actually going anywhere. Typical stationary bikes have a solid back inverted T-frame that sits firmly on the ground and a front wheel which sits just off the ground and turns freely by pedal motion. As stationary bikes provide low impact exercise, experts consider them to provide one of the best cardio and lower-body workouts. People with knee injuries often choose stationary bikes as a therapeutic alternate that strengthens knee muscles without “pounding” joints. Stationary bikes have tension settings, equivalent to gears, to adjust to any workout level. Just thirty minutes of daily exercise on a stationary bike will satisfy most recommended cardio requirements for a healthy lifestyle.
