Set Your Stationery Bike Up Correctly

By Ayub Yusuf


We all recognize the advantages of frequent exercise. Putting some physical stress on our system is a great way to get the heart pumping, something that is essential for cardio-vascular fitness. In addition,frequent exercise tones up our muscles, and helps us burn off excess calories.



However, there are some drawbacks to putting our system through challenging training sessions. One of the leading difficulties is that we may put excess strain on our joints. If we conduct impact exercises like jogging or running on a treadmill, that can put added stress on the joints, especially the knee and ankle joints.

To get the most out of a stationery bike, you need to use fitness regimes that have been designed by specialists.When you go to a fitness center, the resident fitness instructors will be glad to help you with a routine specifically modified for you. Most fitness programs are built around target heart rates.

Be wary of making use of routines that you see in books or online. The ideal target heart rate for one person may be totally unsuitable for another. There are many factors that have to be taken into account.

Your present level of fitness, your resting heart rate, your BMI, your weight and your age are all important factors. Each routine should aim to bring your heart rate up to the target in incremental stages. You need to begin with a warming up period before increasing to a higher intensity. When your heart rate reaches target, maintain it at that level for the designated period. Finally, allow a cooling down period by not simply stopping at the maximum rate.

While stationery bikes are one of the safest of all types of exercise machine, you might still do yourself some harm if you do not set your bike up correctly. 0These bikes are built to provide a means of exercising with very little force being placed on the joints.
