Q. I'm thinking about buying an exercise bike. What is better? Upright or recumbent? Which one will help me burn more calories? Will there be a big difference if I don't get one with the movable bars on the arm handles? I'm just lost. Please help. Thanks :)
Answer
I put my regular bike on a track stand with magnetic resistance unit. You can find them at Performance Bike for under $100 for the basic version (what I have).
It takes up hardly any space once I take the bike off.
Calories? the harder you go, the more you burn. Upright vs. recumbent is all a matter of taste and comfort. Recumbent might be a little better if you like to read or play video games while you ride. Bear in mind that if you're going easy enough to read, you're not burning a whole lot of calories.

i want to buy an exercise bike, the upright one not the one where you sit down, is it worth it to buy to do cardio? does it tone your legs too much?
Answer
Exercise is really unnecessary if you think about it. Just go through your everyday actions and you will get all of the exercise you need. For example, all Harold does these days is help fools on Yahoo Answers and snipe the stinkin' Mexicans to prevent them to reach his tower in Budapest, unless they are there to do cheap labor. So really the only thing he needs to exercise are his fingers, which are exercised by doing those very actions.
Sounds like all you need to do is keep walking. Don't let nobody slow you down. Not even those sixth graders that throw ice chunks at your dome.
