    I have an exercise bike too. Really getting into it.

    But, is it better to burn more calories at a lower resistance setting or should I up it a gear and break more sweat but burn less calories?

    I’m just getting into cycling myself, but here’s my opinion!

    What about intervals of different gears? I use some exercise videos when cycling and they’ll say when to higher/lower the gears.

    I think it’s better to work up a sweat and with lower calories, your body is still burning off calories when resting. :)

    Me again, bike is assembled and support emailed re Ifit code. But having problems with the app. Gone the the Playstore and now have it on the tablet but can't get any further. Trying to register for an account so enter my email address and click Begin my Journey and it goes nowhere, just keeps unclicking the option. I g deleted it and tried again an no luck, any suggestions. Wifi and bluetooth enabled and tablet is paired with bike.

    This is great stuff, thanks for your links. I like riding in nature, or around town more, but I realize that's not possible right now. And most of the year we can't drive. I'll think about it.

    Is there an exercise bike you can get that links with smartphone apps? apple health or samsung health? Or does something have to be added to an exercise bike in order for this link to work?

    Just wondering if someone could give an update as to their experience with their bikes? Would they recommend their model? Did your fitness improve, did you lose any weight or tone up if that was the aim? I'm hoping to get one, max budget is E 500. Dread the thought of having to assemble it myself though never had any probleme with anything from Ikea. I wouldn't even recognize a wrench.

    Would really welcome recommendations as overwhelmed by the choice. Many thanks.

    Did anyone have any resistance problems with the Proform 210?

    Mine pairs up fine with iFit and the resistance was changing automatically although that stops if i were to manually change the resistance and so then after that i would have to keep changing it myself. That is something that i'd have to do alot as i don't think the bike resistance matches up properly in that regard when doing an iFit session.

    But now level 1 resistance is like level 8 or something and it's not changing at all properly for me. Anyone else come across that problem and fix it?

    Thanks.

    I'm more of a fan of the real bike, since I like riding in the woods better.
