Anyone who's tried out the various exercise bikes knows that some are less forgiving than others, especially on one's rear end. Although you want to have a good workout, you also want to be able to walk decently off your machine without jelly legs and a sore bottom.
If you have had the misfortune of such an experience, select the recumbent stationary bikes for your next workout. They are the ones with bucket seats, large enough to accommodate those blessed with generous posteriors. You ease yourself into the comfortable seat which is normally quite near to the ground, sit back and cycle away without feeling time ticking by.
In the event you haven't lifted much of a finger or foot towards any form of a serious exercise routine, it's advisable to get yourself checked out by your doctor. This is to avoid any untoward incident in the future due to unknown conditions of misaligned spines and weak hearts. Once your doctor gives you a relatively clean bill of health, hence you have no excuse in delve into some aerobic activity.
Get yourself on one of those recumbent stationary bikes is a good starting point. They are suitable for people of all fitness levels as they have various settings to suit everyone's capability. Since their seats are much closer to the ground, pressure is taken off your back and shoulders, placed squarely on the largest part of your body. After a tiring day, set the workout for a nice and easy cruise around the park. If you are game for a little resistance, adjust the settings to simulate uphill climbs. Whilst your thighs and calves start to look well-toned, don't forget the upper half of your body. Lift a few weights to tone your arms while you pedal away.
As you progress from beginner to intermediate to advanced level, it's a process which you maintain without too much of an effort. A well-toned body is certainly worth a few sessions on the exercise bikes. The effort is certainly worth it when you cause heads to turn as you walk by.
