blondesmiler Posted February 20, 2009 Share Posted February 20, 2009 I have one at home, a good one. I have taken to using it while watching a movie (I live alone so not an issue) only thing its not great to sit on for ages so do 10mins at time upto a total of upto 40-50mins. How much is enough or not enough? I do other exercise aswell also do arm weights and exercises while on the bike which increases my heart rate more. Link to post Share on other sites
kdark Posted February 21, 2009 Share Posted February 21, 2009 I do an hour of cardio on it everyday. It does wonders for me. Link to post Share on other sites
Enema Posted February 21, 2009 Share Posted February 21, 2009 About 30 minutes is good, but you need to maintain a decent bpm. Maybe 130+ or it's not worth it. Link to post Share on other sites

Is that what OPD stands for on the display, its the only one that isn't obvious what it is. I have: Time Calories Speed Pulse OPD Distance ???????????? Link to post Share on other sites
clv0116 Posted February 21, 2009 Share Posted February 21, 2009 Bikes never worked for me, I have to use a treadmill, but if you can keep at it then go for it. However 10 minutes at a shot isn't really the thing to do. You want at least 20 contiguous minutes, 45 is better. Link to post Share on other sites
