Let's check out the Schwinn
230 Recumbent Exercise Bike . . .
Tired
of going to the gym every day for the aerobic workout that your body
needs? Then, it is time for you to have your own fitness
machine
that can help you get fit at your convenience, and in the comfort of
your own home.
The Schwinn 230 Recumbent Exercise Bike is a compact
stationary bike
designed to offer dual-position lumbar support with Bio-Fit Comfort
wide seat. Unlike some of the traditional upright exercise
bikes
which sometimes cause strain on the upper part of the body, this
Schwinn exercise bike was designed with the comfort of its users in
mind.
This stationary exercise bicycle provides a
comfortable workout as it has a recumbent seat with a micro-adjustable
fore/aft seat slider. This guarantees back support that can comfortably
accommodate a range of body types.
This is basically one
of the main reasons why consumers love the Schwinn 230 Recumbent. It
eliminates the back strain that you typically experience with upright
exercise bike models.
This unit also includes handle bars with
heart-rate sensor grips, to enable you to monitor the effect of your
workout on your heart. It also has oversized deluxe Bio-Fit
pedals. The pedals are slightly lowered, for a more comfortable riding
position during exercise.
Who says exercising is boring?
With the Schwinn 230, you can get an easy and relaxing workout while
watching your favorite TV show as it does not create “noise” while you
pedal. This is made possible by the quiet magnetic resistance
system feature of this bike.
It is also designed in such
a way that reading your favorite magazine or book will be convenient as
it comes equipped with a reading rack. And the water bottle
holder is is easy to reach under the seat whenever you need to
replenish your fluids.
For those who want a challenging workout,
this recumbent bike also has 6 preset programs. These programs include
quick start, manual mode, calorie goal, BMI measurement, recovery test,
and results mode.
There are also 16 levels of resistance
to choose from, guaranteeing an invigorating workout for users at any
fitness level.
Monitoring your progress is a snap. The
LCD console is adjustable in three viewing angles, and provides
feedback on metrics such as time, interval time, watts, distance, RPM,
pulse, and more.
This exercise bike measures 63 x 25 x 46 inches
(L x W X H) and has a capacity of 300 pounds. Transport
wheels
provide for easy maneuvering, though the cycle does weigh in at
slightly over 100 lbs.
