B cars plus cash
Biking or cycling is an exciting and intense way to burn off calories. Unfortunately, wide open spaces or roads and suitable weather conditions are not always available. Plus, cycling as a team on a road is not very safe either. Indoor cycling or exercising is a preferred, easier and safer way to enjoy the task and form of cycling with the comfort of an indoor environment. But, sitting on a stationary bike and just pedaling away sounds a bit tame, don't you think?
Not, if you are part of a spinning class. This form of exercise involves simulating real on-the-road biking in an indoor setting, with the help of a trainer and adjusting bike resistance settings and positions. It's not easy, spinning classes require commitment to working with the trainer and stamina to keep up with the class. But for those who enjoy exercising in a team or class and for professional cycling sportsmen who need training during the off season, this is an ideal way to cycle. Plus, trainers can make a class a live and invigorating experience, with music and tempo changes as well as the changes in pace.
For fitness freaks, this is one advantage packed exercising form, especially in terms of calorie burning. A spinning bike is slightly different from most exercise bikes, due to the presence of a large or medium sized, flywheel and very adjustable height and weight tools. Whether for usage at home or at the gym, below are some spinning bike reviews which analyze the top bike models.
