How to Build Strength Endurance
1.
Don’t forget to warm up for about 10 minutes
2.
Start the first of three 10-minute intervals by
increasing the resistance to the point where
your cadence is 50-60 revolutions per minute.
This should feel hard but not so hard that you
can’t pedal smoothly. Be sure to maintain good
form in the upper body, letting the legs do all
the work.
3.
Avoid pulling with your arms. Your heart rate will
slowly increase but you should not feel out of
breath. Be sure to pedal all the way through the
360 degree stroke, pulling up and pushing down,
staying smooth. It should feel like you’re
grinding up a steep hill, and really good music
helps a lot at this point.
4.
After 10 minutes, let up on the resistance so that you
can spin easily for a 5-minute recovery.
5.
Increase resistance again to the same pressure as the
first interval and repeat it two more times: 10
minutes hard, 5 minutes easy.
6.
After finish don’t forget to cool down for about 10
minutes with light resistance. And then stretch
your arm, leg, and thighs.
Tips for Buying Stationary Bike
1.
If you want a more consistent and quiet resistant
training bike, go with the magnetic resistance
style. You will find that some bikes come with
pushbuttons or knobs to control the magnetic
resistance levels and experts say you should
choose the pushbutton models.
2.
For pricing, exercise bikes are all over the board. You
can buy decent Proform or Fitness Quest exercise
bike for under $500 but you will sacrifice on
some of the options we noted above. If you go up
to the $500-$1000 price level, you will get a
good exercise bike with magnetic resistance, top
quality consoles, built-in workout programs,
heart rate monitors, and foot straps.
3.
If you can afford a high end bike, consider the Life
Cycle or luxury Tunturi exercise bikes that cost
over $1000. Anything over $1000 will be similar
to what you find in your local health club. They
should provide an extremely smooth ride,
advanced programming, durability and a solid
warranty.
