Best way to burn calories on a stationary bicycle?
Will I burn the same amount of calories on a recumbent style bike as I would on a regular stationary bicycle?
If not, can you help me out with determining how many calories I will burn on a recumbent bike? I'm 5'0, 110 lbs and 19 years old.
Special elliptical or stationary bicycle designed to charge batteries for an electric motor...good idea?
This could be a quick and cheap solution to several transportation problems for people in good shape. I generate about 210 220watts on an elliptical machine for about 1 hour. I figure this caloric pace guarantees about 25 28 mph pace on a bike...if I stored that energy into a battery and used it on an electric motor for 30 minutes shouldn't it enabled 60minutes 30minutes 25 to 28mph about 45 55mph speed on a bike powered by that battery with wind resistance taken into account ? I figure this would be perfect for a 15 minute commute to and from work by a bike nearly as quickly as by car courtesy of energy from my 1 hour workouts...provided I could find a bike path to do the route provided the bike was built to be stable at 50mph...perhaps being a 3 wheel recumbent . Has anyone seen such a device or have ideas how to do it or what limitations it may have that I may have overlooked ?BTW Economically speaking it appears you can get a motor that can handle 1200watts power at once for about $80. So for $160 to hell with $700 electric bike hub motors you should be able to create a power source easily capable of 50 mph when linked to a bike...the question seems to be what kind of battery to use and how to charge it from a stationary exercise machine.cgi.ebay.com ws eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem& item 270110202404& fromMakeTrack true& ssPageName VIP watchlink top usJust in case...the above link is NOT an item I am selling but one I found IE I am not advertisingGood answers..yet I already have some unit confusion here... I start to wonder how accurate my elliptical is in how it judges watts...is says I'm doing a constant 220 watts yet this feels MUCH harder than riding at 22 ish mph at least to me ...more like running consecutive 6 minute miles. The same machine also shows I'm going at about 1100 calories an hour pace IE it reads 1100 calories burned after 1 hour. How would that output translate into kwh on a bike assuming 95 % ish efficiency ?

A stand that turns my road bicycle into a stationary bicycle?
I want to ride stationary bike inside because there is too much snow outside and it is too cold. I have seen things at yard sales that are stands that you hook up to your regular bike's back pedal and you can ride them in the house as a stationary exercise bike. Does anyone know if they still make these and where can I get one? Any idea on price range? Thanks for the help

What's the difference in benefits between these two types of stationary bicycles?
At my gym, there are both the type of bike where there's a back to the seat & your legs are out in front of you. there's also the standard stationary bike where you sit on a regular bike seat & your legs are below you, like you're riding a real bike.So, what is the difference between these two styles of bikes?
