| Enjoy an efficient cardio workout without leaving the home with the Ironman 125 recumbent exercise bike. The no-frills bike offers all the workout basics, including an 11-pound flywheel that creates a smooth feel as you ride, along with a large LCD readout that tracks your time, speed, distance, pulse, and calories burned. Riders will also appreciate the self-balancing pedals and recumbent step-through frame, which combine to create a comfortable riding experience. (The frame is particularly ideal for people with limited mobility or who are recovering from injury). Perhaps the most convenient feature, however, is the bike's compact, light-power design. The bike, which is small enough to fit easily in apartments or small rooms, features a computer that runs on two AA batteries (included). As a result, you can locate the bike pretty much anywhere--including on the back deck in the summertime--as no outlet is required for operation. Other features include eight resistance levels, handlebar pulse grips, bottom wheels for easy transport, and a 250-pound capacity. The Ironman 125 recumbent bike measures 42 by 41 by 19 inches (W x H x D), weighs 69.3 pounds, and carries a lifetime warranty on the frame and a one-year warranty on parts.

About Recumbent Exercise Bikes Despite the competition from trendy new fitness inventions, exercise bikes continue to be popular options for home exercise. They offer the same aerobic benefits of riding a bicycle at any time, in any weather, without leaving the comfort and safety of home. Exercise bikes don't take up much space, require little or no balance or coordination, and can provide an effective workout for all levels of users, from beginners to serious competitors. While the same could be said for a number of other types of home fitness equipment, the exercise bike is one of the few that allows you to watch television or read a magazine while you work out. The term recumbent literally means "lying down." Exercising in a recumbent or reclining position allows the user to have full ergonomic back support, without causing strain on the arms, neck and shoulders, all of which can be common effects of using an upright bicycle. For many people, having convenient access to quality exercise equipment is critical to sticking with a long-term exercise program. |
