. Anyway I personally use the stationary bike for most of my cardio, I usually use it for an hour and get a great workout. Try to find a cardio workout that is most comfortable for you.

My stationary bike at home has this self-adjusting resistance dial. I will turn the dial, either increase or decrease the resistance (typically by 2 or 4 steps), every 30-60 seconds. I am definately sweating way more and working way harder (keeping that heart rate up) when I do this. I seriously cannot believe I didn't start doing this earlier; definately a noticable change in increased intensity compared with standard "presets" or consistant resistance. I've been doing this for about a year on and off. I cannot say for sure how effective it is, but I thought the point of cardio was to keep that heart rate up and make your body really work, which I believe this does better than the other methods I mentioned above (on a stationary bike). So just answering your question ("would you really get the work out you should be shooting for?"), I believe yes. |
