I've been having problems walking and therefore, don't get proper exercise. The Stamina InStride Cycle helps me with this. I can sit and cycle. I am still comfortable but can get some exercise. It's great. It was easy to put together and simple to use. I haven't tried the arm exercises yet but that looks interesting too.
MAYBE I NEED ANOTHER ONE BUT... September 20, 2008 4 out of 5 found this comment useful.
WHILE USING THE PRODUCT IT STICKS AS IT TURNS - NOT GIVING ME A TRUE FEELING OF RIDING A BIKE. ALTHOUGH, THE RESISTANCE IS DUE TO TURNING THE KNOB IN THE MIDDLE OF THE TUBE, IT DOESN'T SEEM TO GIVE YOU A TRUE VERSION OF EXERCISING. IF THE PRODUCT CAN BE IMPROVED IN RESISTANCE AND SMOOTHNESS OF PEDALING - IT WOULD PROBABLY BE MORE EFFECTIVE.
Great for city seniors with little room to spare. September 10, 2008 2 out of 2 found this comment useful.
Bought this for my in-laws in their late 70's. They live in NYC all their life, never play any sports or excercise, walking becomes a problem if they don't keep up with some kind of excercise. This mini bike is perfect for them as a starter. Small enough for having it in living room or on a table for arm workout. They love it, and most of all they don't feel intimidated because it's low impact option gives them more confidence that they're able to do it. Sometimes smaller is better and this is one of them. Very good quality in material and structure.
Good value. September 2, 2008 3 out of 3 found this comment useful.
I purchased this product as a replacement for the basic pedal exerciser model, which broke after about a year of use. This is much sturdier than the old one. A great benefit is that it slides far less on my hardwood floor. The timer is pretty cheap and nothing fancy, but, let's face it, if this is your primary piece of exercise equipment, that is exactly what you need. The size is also quite convenient for hiding it away when it's not in use.
I highly recommend it for anyone who wants to be able to do some exercise while watching TV, but doesn't want to put the time and money into getting more complex exercise equipment for their living room.
Good deal for a cheap remedy. August 14, 2008 4 out of 4 found this comment useful.
I needed a way to exercise my legs to improve circulation(diabetic with heart problems)and this does the trick!!!! This is not a sophisticated machine and the timer is really worthless. But it works wonders on my circulation issues in my the legs. I will try it on my arms for my back. It is no substitute for a tread mill but if I could do that well I wouldn't have needed this.
