| Exercise: Elliptical and Magnetic Bikes |
For me, no matter what I do, without exercise I cannot stay fit for very long. I hate food restrictions and I hate going to fitness centers and waiting in line or just having someone run after me to tell me how I should do things.
I also feel I'm wasting time when I exercises - unless I play sports, which is different. So I either need to watch TV or read a book while exercising, not thinking about burnt calories. If I use the bike 30 minutes, out of those 10 are those I use thinking about what I am doing (5, for warm-up, at the beginning, and 5 minutes to reach my kilometers, calories, or minutes count, at the end). I use the other 20 watching TV or reading.
This week, even though I am low on money, I went to buy an indoor bike (magnetic is what i wanted) and I bought a Kettler Vento for 250 bucks. It's worth it. Actually, I wanted a bike (similar to the elliptical below) that works out your arms too but those had no seat so the chances of reading and working out were dim.
30 minutes on such a bike can help you burn 300 calories, medium difficulty, medium pace. It's not only the calories you burn, it's working out the muscles. You can see the results the next day. Honestly.
For the upper body I do push-ups and I have my own weights so I exercisea few times a week, a few minutes and all's going well. As for stomach - I don't have a problem with losing weight there - I have built muscles there in the past so a few pillates plus crunches plus other funny exercises, 5 minutes a day, 4 times a week, help me enough to be stay satisfied.Labels: bike, exercise, fitness |
