Unfortunately, every time we make a big exercise purchase it’s great for a few weeks and then the newness wears off.

Hello Norleila,
I like to ride bikes but in the winter it is not an idea that works well where I live too cold and too icy.
The one that you show for $432.55 does it come fully equipped with all of the twenty two workouts you describe? A lot of models will say they come with them and then when you buy it you see you have to join a club or something in order to get them.
Thanks,
The Fat Guy
Hi The Fat Guy,
Well with the ProForm Recumbent Bike you do not have to worry about the weather. You can ride it rain or shine.
The 22 workouts is a built-in feature but like I mentioned in the review, you will need a iFit wireless adapter (which is sold separately). This iFit adapter allows you to connect with iFit.com and provides diverse workouts by partnering with Google Maps. Training with America’s toughest trainer, Jillian Michaels, is also possible through the iFit wireless adapter.
I hope this help to get you started with your riding and keeping fit.
Should you need further clarifications do not hesitate to keep in touch.
Best regards,
Norleila

I try to get regular exercise. Biking and walking are two of my favorites. I can attest to the value of a recumbent bike because I have had on and off back trouble. I can use a recumbent bike as much as I want without ever having back problems. I can’t say the same about upright bikes.
You are right Mike the Proform Recumbent Bike is definitely an asset to get regular exercise. With its seat features, it really gives an incredible support to work in comfort thus help us with our postures. In other words, we can say goodbye to backaches.

A great article! You really went in depth
explaining the ins and outs of this machine! Your
site layout is very relaxing and you’ve organized
things really well. I especially like the bullet points
at the bottom to kind of break up the information.
I think staying healthy and fit is something that more
people need to attempt.. especially in a country
such as the US where we are in a constant battle over what is good to eat and what isn’t. Keep up the great work!
-Stu
Well said Stu, we should make a serious attempt to stay healthy and fit. Exercise is one of the essential ingredients to achieve good health.
With the Proform Recumbent Bike, it has never been easier to keep up with our regular exercise. The weather is no longer a hindrance for us to exercise with this bike. Therefore, owning a Proform Recumbent Bike is definitely an advantage and a plus factor towards a healthy lifestyle.

I love recumbent bikes! Especially while watching a movie… great review article on this bike. I’ve been looking at exercise equipment lately and I’m not sold in anything just yet.
Do you use it as well?
What’s your personal favorite options with this bike?
What makes it better than it competitors?
Thanks!
Benjamin
Hi Benjamin,
Recumbent bikes are the choice of many health conscious people. With the awesome features it’s easier to monitor your progress and meet your target. For me I love nearly all the features as they help me with my target setting and give me more confident on my way to a better health. The seat is so comfortable that I could sit and spend a longer time without sacrificing my butt.
This Proform Recumbent bike is sure a good choice to get started and maintain your exercise routine. I really hope more people will take their health seriously and recognise the importance of exercise and stop being lazy.
Thanks for your contribution and hope to share with you more updates on health issues. Take care!

Hi, thanks for sharing your knowledge. I had heard honey had great properties. I believe you can use it mixed with oatmeal (for example) & make face masks too.
On a different product, I’ve used whisked egg whites on my face to try & tighten the skin to get rid of those crows feet lines at the side of your eyes.
The proform bike looks pretty comfortable to use!
My biggest complaint about these stationary bikes is how unconfortable the seats are and I always feel like i am sliding off. I get all shifty and distracted, and people at the gym look at me weird.
I like the wider seat that helps with posture, because when I am trying not slide down the seat of regular bikes, it seems i hunch over more.
This would be a great addition to the gym I go to or for home!
Hey Survival Chick,
You are right! This Proform Recumbent Bike is so comfortable with its wide recumbent chair-like seat design. This is a great help for our posture and back.
What more with its fantastic features, it definitely makes exercise a great experience. Hence motivate a person to upkeep his exercise routine.
I really hope more people will start exercising and continue with it to stay healthy. Thus this Proform bike would be a great advantage to own whether at a gym or home.
Thanks for your interest in this Proform recumbent bike. Hope it helps with your decision should you wish to own one.
Best regards,
Norleila
Thanks for
I’ve had a stand-up bike, but it does not work for me. Whenever I decided to use it I would get distracted in my thoughts, the TV or the music and wouldn’t put the necessary effort in my training. Therefore, I never used it and gave it away. Now I prefer using video exercises with HIIT training. But I do recognize that this bike is a good start if you want to find your way into fitness and health.
Hi Ana,
Sad to say, you’re not the only person who got distracted easily. Most of us get bored easily. In whatever we do, we usually get excited initially but the excitement died with time. This is where a high level of discipline is needed in us in whatever we do. If we manage to discipline ourselves then this Proform Recumbent Bike would be a great help to us in keeping and living healthy lifestyles.
Best regards and good health to you.

Hi,
I am on a going healthy journey myself and I suffer from lower back pain. I like to exercise and stay healthy but some of the workouts cause more pain than they are worth. I’m looking more more low impact exercises like the recumbent bike. Are there anymore low impact exercise machines that you can recommend?
Hi,
It’s great to know that you are on the healthy journey. A Proform Recumbent Bike is one of a great home exercise equipment.
However, there are many other low impact exercise machines that are also worth considering.
But of course each individual would have different choice or preference.
A machine that suits your need and within your budget would be a preferred choice. But most importantly you should be able to exercise consistently with your equipment’s choice.
Hope this would help you to own a home gym equipment to continue your healthy journey.
Best regards,
Norleila
What a great piece of home gym equipment. It is pricy for home use but you are getting gym equipment quality. I think this is something I would purchase myself if I was looking for bike. Great overall blog and well presented 10 out of 10!. Do you recommend a treadmill as that is what I’m really after.
Hi,
You are right, Proform Recumbent Bike is a great home gym equipment. It is so convenient to carry out workouts and you can actually schedule your own routine.
Of course there are many other home equipment that can be considered.
A treadmill would be another alternative to a great home gym equipment. However, be it a Proform Recumbent Bike, treadmill or any other home gym equipment, the most important thing is to stay consistent with the workouts and never to give up on exercising.
Hope this helps.
Best regards,
Norleila

Thanks for this great review. I used to go to the gym everyday for a few years and I was paying around 60 bucks a month for mine. They had awesome equipment for cardio like this bike. One day I just decided to buy one and it’s awesome how much money you get back in savings because I stopped going to the gym and started exersizing at home. It just feels better for me personally. these bikes are definitely great for losing weight and getting in shape. Thanks for the review!

I really want to start exercising but have been putting it off because I have a bad knee. I also broke my right ankle a few years ago and every once in a while I get pains in it. Because of this I continue to avoid exercise.
A friend suggested I try a bike because the impact wouldn’t be as bad as a treadmill but I don’t know the first thing about exercise bikes.
Your review on the Proform Recumbent bike is great! This bike sounds wonderful and is making me want to start exercising right now! And the price is quite reasonable. I figured I would end up having to spend over $1000 on a decent piece of equipment.
I am going to show your review to my husband and see if I can get him on board!
Hi,
Hey this preform bike looks nice! I currently have a preform treadmill and I can only say good things about it. I think that I am going to buy the bike because it looks like it has many good features!
Thanks for the awesome bike review! I hope you come out with a treadmill or elliptical review.
Hi,
Compared to other products this looks nice and affordable. I am on a budget that this will be great to have.
I will invest and put money to buy this because I know it is to better my health. Anything that is for my health I take very seriously!
I’ve been needing a new piece of exercise equipment at home for quite some time now. i used to have a dope treadmill at home, but my friend came over and broke it (he was a bit too big ::facepalm::). This looks like a good piece of equipment and is cheaper than a treadmill. Great review on this awesome product.
Seems like a pretty cool exercise bike. At first glance it seems like the price is a little on the expensive side, but if all you want to do is get some cardio in then this a good investment instead of having to go to the gym and use their bicycle. After a few months of paying for the membership you could have already bought yourself your own. Great review!
HI Norleila, great review of the ProForm Recumbent Bike, it looks like a great bike with a lot of great features. My only question is, how good is the bike for taller people? I’m 6-2 with long legs so would I have problems pedaling or getting full range of motion when pedaling?
Otherwise, great review & keep up the great work.
