Aside from the fact that with stationary exercise bikes you can exercise in the comfort of your own home, there are also loads of health benefits you’ll receive from using these great machines.

Upright Stationary Bikes are of the most popular form of exercise bikes as they are the most similar to traditional bicycles. The posture and leg position when riding is very similar to riding out doors so for old vets of outdoor biking, this bike will benefit you the most.

For users looking for a little more ‘comfortable’ ride, you should consider a semi-recumbent exercise bike. Semi-recumbent bicycles have a saddle that is like a chair, and the pedals are in front of you rather than below you. The chair-like saddle on semi-recumbent bicycles provides more support for your lower back and will allow the rider to ride for longer.

Lastly, we have recumbent bicycles. When you are situated on a recumbent bike, you are very close to the floor with your feet at chest level. With such a high foot position, the blood pressure in your body will remain lower than when exercising with an upright bike, so for those with heart problems or high blood pressure we’d recommend this bike.
