Choose treadmills, or choose exercise bikes?
Treadmills, elliptical machines, and exercise bikes can be said to be the three essential aerobic equipment in the gym. Treadmills are generally equipped with the largest number, followed by elliptical machines and exercise bikes.
We all know that in addition to exercising cardiopulmonary function, aerobic exercise can also help lose weight. Because once the intensity of aerobic exercise is controlled, the heart rate can be stabilized in an efficient fat-burning range, thereby quickly losing weight.
Treadmills and spinning bikes
For this reason, many people choose from three types of equipment in order to lose weight. Most people choose treadmills, while a small number of people choose exercise bikes. Why is this? In fact, after experiencing it once, you will know why you chose it this way. Here I will talk about personal feelings, which can be used as a reference.
Treadmill running experience
Xiaohong believes that running on a treadmill is a semi-active exercise. The reason why it is called semi-active is because the treadmill is driven by a motor. That is, when the running belt is running, people must start running on it. Otherwise, it will fall and you will have to move even if you are not moving to ensure your own safety.
Therefore, in this drive mode, the feeling of running on the treadmill is different from that of running outdoors.
When running outdoors, you can maintain the expected balance and speed no matter how you move. However, running on a treadmill is insecure at first. You need to adapt to the speed of the treadmill and keep your running speed consistent with the speed of the treadmill. Only then can you run more easily and smoothly.
This feeling requires you to run more than three times or for an hour in total, and then you can slowly control the speed of the treadmill. The more times you use it, the more you can use the treadmill as you like.
This adaptability is not a problem for any age, which is why treadmill sales are higher than other equipment.
Spinning room
The riding experience of an exercise bike
There are two types of exercise bikes, one is called a magnetic exercise bike and the other is called a spinning bike. Spinning bicycles generally play a very important role in gyms. There are usually special cycling halls with dozens of bicycles and a group of people riding and sweating to the loud music.
Therefore, the exercise intensity of spinning is also very high, no less than running, but it is also very painful to play cycling without some basic knowledge.
First of all, when riding a bicycle, you can move forward and backward, but a spinning bicycle can only move forward and not backward. It is the same mechanical method as the dead-flight on a bicycle.
Therefore, first-time users will feel a very large inertia when riding, especially when decelerating from fast to slow or even stopping. If the control is not good, they will feel like they are being thrown away, and safety accidents may easily occur.
Secondly, spinning mainly relies on the lower limbs for exercise. It requires relatively high strength of the legs, or it requires relatively high muscle mass of the legs. If you do not have a riding foundation, you will soon feel muscle soreness and weakness, and want to give up. . The comfort and control throughout the entire use process are far inferior to those of a treadmill.
To put it simply, treadmills are easier to control and use, and bicycles need to be adapted slowly before they can be used better. For the needs of fat loss, both are good equipment. As for how to choose, you still have to choose a comfortable and efficient equipment based on your own experience and feelings.
