Exercise bikes, also known as stationary bikes, are – as the name suggests – indoor bikes that come with many great benefits.
There are three different types of stationary bikes: spin bikes, recumbent bikes and upright bikes.
The spin bikes are pretty much similar to a normal bike, the only difference is that you’re not going anywhere. Great for athletes or passionate bikers that can’t enjoy the sceneries because of the awful weather.
Recumbent bikes are ideal for people looking for a lighter training or even needing to recover from a previous injury. Or maybe someone suffering from back problems. They fit best thanks to their interesting design, offering a comfortable position and great back support while you’re working out your legs.
Upright bikes are usually smaller and more compact. The position is somehow similar to a real bike but the handles are normally higher. If you’re in the need of space and on a budget, they might be the thing you need.
