Product Information

Calorie monitors aren't always so accurate to begin with, and the DeskCyle owner's manual says the counts are closest if you're pedaling on the highest resistance, so I did a little fact-checking. The resistance at top level can quickly get me out of breath and I like to think I'm above average fitness. Given its hand made and hand-finished nature, variations and imperfections in solid, real-wood furniture are to be expected and celebrated.

This low cardio zone increases your energy level and oxygen to your brain without distracting you from your work.Although it may not be the prettiest, our experts appreciate that it’s fairly affordable in comparison to other models but still well made. You can assess how sore your legs are the next day and then gradually increase the time if you feel good. There’s a small digital monitor to keep track of metrics like time, speed, calories and distance while you work out, and you can pick among eight resistance levels by turning the tension knob. Keep in mind it will raise the level of your knees as you use it, so make sure there's enough clearance for your full range of motion.

The DeskCycle is a super convenient option designed to be used under a desk, or just about anywhere you can sit. They mention that it's not remotely tedious, it'd be easy to set up, and convenient to work into their everyday activity. The DeskCycle 2 has more than twice the resistance range of the cheaper pedal exercisers, so you can really customize your workout to your own fitness level. I did have a cheap mini cycle a while ago and that difference for me is paramount, so much so, that while I was considering the DeskCycle and a few alternatives, that factor was enough to make the decision.Or does Fitbit already take in account for the 53 calories burned while sitting, whilst adding the burned 98 calories for the logged activity? BUILD STRENGTH: With more than twice the resistance range of other mini exercise bikes, our 8 settings range from very easy to really hard. If I planned to ride this contraption on a daily basis, I'd need to keep a neck fan and some sort of misting-device nearby at all times. On the lower level, non of any of this, so I just do not believe the calorie figures and the difference in distance is far too small to make any sense.
