If you are looking for a comfortable way to get a great workout, this bike is for you. In the semi-reclined position you work all the major muscles in: your hips, thighs and buttocks. These are the areas most men and women would like to see strengthened and tight.

However, the Stamina Elite Total Body Recumbent Bike has rotating handlebars. Your hands also peddle working the arms, shoulders and back. This is perfect for avoiding bone loss. Remember the old saying, “use it or lose it.”

The Stamina bike is built solidly. It weighs 117 lbs. but is very stable with large front and back stabilizers. With its adjustable angle seatback and padded seat this bike is comfortable. The sturdy steel frame handles any workload you put yourself through.

A battery-operated monitor displays speed, distance, time, calories burned. Pulse is monitored by sensors in handrails beside the seat.

Just some of the features:

• Quiet magnetic resistance
• Multi-function monitor
• Includes upper hand pedals and lower foot pedals
• Comfortable padded seat and seatback
• Adjustable angle seatback
• Sturdy steel frame
• Water bottle holder
• Oversized foot pedals and adjustable foot straps

The health benefits of a regular cardiovascular workout are well documented. Couple that with a strength building program like the Stamina Bike offers and you can stave off many of modern-day illnesses. This would include obesity, bone loss, hardened arteries and heart disease. Although genetics play a large part in high cholesterol, diet and exercise have been shown to have an impact on cholesterol levels.

Nothing will ensure you will workout but with this bike in your home you will have run out of excuses.
