Selection guide for spinning bikes
Before buying, first understand the advantages and disadvantages of spinning bikes, and then confirm whether you want to buy~
Advantages: Spinning bike can improve leg muscles, and also has a very good effect on the muscles of the buttocks, waist, back, and arms; as an excellent aerobic exercise, spinning bike training can gradually improve cardiopulmonary function, and if the exercise intensity is strengthened Can play a role in weight loss.
Disadvantages: The upper limbs of spinning bikes are less involved. After a long time of exercise, the buttocks and crotch may feel a little uncomfortable…
1. Resistance adjustment method
Including traditional physical friction and magnetic control.
physical friction
The traditional physical friction method has a price advantage.
The ability to adjust tends to be faster and the resistance is more natural~
However, due to the physical friction between the brake pads and the flywheel to adjust the resistance of the spinning bike, this method will generate a certain amount of noise.
If you choose a product with a low price, the adjustment accuracy may be relatively low, and you will feel that you have adjusted it too hard or too lightly and then need to fine-tune it many times, which is not convenient to use.
There will be inertia when you use it. Sometimes you want to stop, and the flywheel will push your feet forward…Of course, excellent manufacturers have already predicted the danger and often configure emergency stop technology.
Magnetic
The resistance is controlled by the distance between the magnet and the flywheel. The magnet and the flywheel will not have direct physical contact, so there will be no noise, that is silence.
Another feature is that there is no inertia and it is safer to use.
Because the magnet attracts a certain part of the flywheel to form a local suction force, if you choose a product with a low price, if the magnetic control adjustment is not good, the speed adjustment will be slow and the experience will be average.
2. Selection of flywheel weight
The flywheel is the power core of a spinning bike, and it is also the main body of the bike’s weight, which also affects the main cost of the bike.
If you are going to start with a physical friction type, then the stability and riding smoothness mainly depend on the weight of the flywheel. The weight of the flywheel is heavy, and the riding experience will be better, but relatively speaking, the price will be more expensive…
[Note] If you are going to start with the magnetic control type, the weight of the flywheel has a certain reference value, but it also depends on the magnetic control adjustment.
Entry level: 8-12KG flywheel
It is more suitable for women, office workers with average physical fitness, and middle-aged and elderly people, and the intensity is relatively small.
It can exercise physical fitness, improve cardiopulmonary function, and has a certain fat-burning effect~
Household grade: 13-18KG flywheel
It is close to the club level and is more suitable for young and middle-aged people with better physical fitness and larger size.
It can exercise body shape, burn fat and lose weight. If trained properly, it can also build muscle and shape to a certain extent.
Club level: 19-25KG flywheel
For Professional Athletes or Specialized Training
[Supplementary Note: If you choose the magnetic control type, due to the different ways of forming resistance, you don’t need to refer to the weight of the flywheel above]
