Take a closer look at the LifeCore Fitness 1000RB recumbent bike

More and more often, people interested in a stationary bike are turning to recumbent bike designs rather than the more traditional stationary bike design. The main reason for this trend is the fact that the recumbent bike provides more back support and comfort throughout your workout. In addition, the recumbent bike helps to train the leg muscles in another way. One particularly popular recumbent bike design is the LifeCore Fitness 1000RB recumbent bike. With its many features and relatively low price, it's not hard to see why this particular model has become so popular.

The LifeCore Fitness 1000RB recumbent bike offers 12 preset programs as well as polar compatible heart rate programs. Therefore, people of almost any skill level can choose a workout that suits their needs.

Although the LifeCore Fitness 1000RB recumbent bike has a compact 44-inch step-through design, it still offers a number of extras not common on stationary bikes. Many of these features emphasize convenience. For example, the model includes Ergo mesh seating as well as other amenities such as a towel rack, a water bottle holder, and even a reading stand for a book.

The seat on the LifeCore Fitness 1000RB recumbent bike can be repositioned in a variety of ways. The seat can be pushed away from or closer to the pedals and then tilted using a seat adjustment knob. This model also has a 5-inch pedal spacing, which reduces stress on the user's joints.

Although the LifeCore Fitness 1000RB recumbent bike has a compact size, it is still a bit heavy at 120 pounds. However, it has oversized transport wheels, which makes moving it back and forth a little easier. Although the price is reasonable for what is included in the model, some users may be satisfied with a model without the “extras” available at a lower price.
