My brother says his head is “thumping” after he rides a exercise bike.He says it is not painful , just weird.After his heart rate settles down it goes away.
It is like his heartbeat is in his brain.
He is on the bike only 10 – 20 minutes , not like hours.
He is 6′4″ 285 lbs
Yes he drinks water , it is along both sides of his head.Not really at the top or back of his head.
Whenver i ride it, it feels like a freaking porno flick. I’m tryna think of a way to modify the bike so it doesn’t hurt as much. It is pretty cheap so i guess i shouldn’t be surprised that it hurts. I tried lowering the seat and raising it, but it still hurts. I was thinking of strapping a pillow on the seat, would that help, any suggestions, thank you
If I keep it up and also stay on my diet will it work or do I need to ride a lot more? The total time it’s taken me to ride the 18 miles is 74m 16secs. Please no fat jokes, I’m aware that I’m fat.
health problems and I am VERY over weight.My question is…how do I lose inches (pounds) in my upper body? Arms for instance. Does riding the bike give me an over all workout? If not what can I do as I am riding the bike? I haven’t exercised in years which is partly to blame for my weight problems so any advice would be appreciated.
What does it do, besides burn calories?
I wanna ride my exercise bike with my leg weights that are a bout 1.5 lbs per ankle but i dont want to ruin anything in my body so what should I do?
I rode an upright exercise bike, and i would like to know how it benefits my body
I am 15 years old, and i’m like 5′6 and weight 145 pounds. my mom bought me a recumbant bike, and I want to use it. I don’t want to if it’s not going to work though. I’m planning on using it about 45 minutes a day. Do you think I’ll be able to at least lose some weight off my upper thigh if i do this?
I don’t really have the money to replace my bike, but I will be using it every day soon and I want to have something road worthy.
I may start looking for used, but I need help deciding what to look for:
I like (need) a comfort saddle (like the kind you find on Specialized Comfort bikes).
I like to lean forward a bit (not ride in upright position).
I ride in the city, on pavement that is smooth (but for they occasional crack or bump).
Sometimes I ride hard and I desire performance; I use my bike for exercise and less often transportation (though that may be changing).
I enjoy my current ride: a cheap Specialized hybrid (comfort/mountain), but it’s kind of boring, not enough balls I might say.
Specific models would be great (but keep the MSRP under $500).
i just bought a stationary recumbent bike. ive rode it 4 times Saturday. i was on it for 20 min and rode 3 miles. Sunday i rode for 4.5 miles Monday i rode 2 times 5 miles in the morning and 3 in the afternoon today i rode for 30 min and did 6. 5 miles iave 10 to 12 mph for the time im on it is this enough to lose some weight if i ride everyday if not any tips will be helpful
I got in a pretty bad skiing accident in 2002, and have since not been able to comfortably ride a regular style bike. I’m not sure if a recumbent would help, since it’s mainly the seat of the bike that causes discomfort. (I fractured my pelvis in 5 places.) Does anyone know of a different style bike seat or affordable bike that I might be able to use? I live in Missoula, MT if anyone knows of any helpful bike shops. Thanks!
Ok I have tried the recumbent at the local shop. A quick spin around the parking lot. It felt wobbly and wierd. I can’t ride uprights though due to a pinched nerve.
The question is after riding a while do you fianally get in tune with the bike. Or is it always twitchy and nervous.
Also what is the better type. The long wheel base or short one?
Can riding an exercise bike burn lower stomach fat? Some call it lower abdomen fat? It is located after your belly button and stops before your pelvis. Basically, it is only 1 or 2 inches long. Everywhere else is tight and perfect. Also, how often should I do it to get rid of it more quickly? It isn’t a lot. Is there any other way to burn it off quicker? Do leg lifts work?
