Schwinn 231 Recumbent Exercise Bike
Recumbent exercise bikes are the exercise bikes with the big and comfortable bucket seats. Because you sit in a reclining position and lower to the ground as you pedal you get full ergonomic back support, without causing strain on the arms, neck and shoulders.
The Schwinn 231 Recumbent Exercise Bike is easy enough for even the most inactive beginners. People who are overweight will definitely like the much larger BioFit seat with dual-position lumbar support
which is much more comfortable than normal exercise bikes.
The bike is compact and looks so pleasing that you could easily put it in a back corner of your living room. Because the seat is so comfortable and the bike so silent you can have a nice workout while watching your favorite program on TV.
The Schwinn 231 bike comes with 16 resistance levels. There are 10 preset and 10 profile workout programs. You can adjust the levels of difficulty by pressing the up and down arrows while the console shows the difficulty and time.
The console shows you your speed, how many calories you have burned and distance. I liked the result feature that gives you your total results at the end of your workout so you can map your progress over time and use it as a motivator to push harder the next time. With the Schwinn 231 fitness tests, programs and the Quick Start you can easily get in shape without the problems of going out in the weather.
The Schwinn Recumbent Bike is really a fantastic piece of exercise equipment and well worth the cost.
