Reasons to train with an air bike

If you haven't tried one yet, you have surely come across an air bike at your gym more than once. These air resistance bikes are gaining popularity and have become a common feature in sports centers. Their unmistakable design makes them easy to recognize.

Workouts with air bikes have spread quickly, and although they can be demanding for many, they are an ideal tool to improve physical performance. Their use is especially recommended for high-intensity sessions (HIIT), as they allow alternating short periods of maximum effort with short, active rests.

Exercising with an air bike is an excellent way to improve cardiovascular and muscular capacity. Additionally, their mechanics minimize joint impact, making them a recommended option for those recovering from an injury or resuming their training routine.

Thanks to their multiple benefits, air bikes are attracting more and more attention from fitness enthusiasts. Do you want to discover everything they can bring to your training? Below, we explain their main advantages.

Benefits of training with an air bike

• Greater cardiovascular and muscular endurance: When working with an air bike, different muscle groups are activated, which helps develop strength and endurance. It also improves aerobic capacity, as long as heart rate is controlled and training is adapted to each person's level.

• High efficiency in calorie burning: HIIT workouts on an air bike accelerate metabolism, promoting rapid and effective calorie burning. If you want to lose weight, this machine can be your great ally, as during maximum intensity periods you can burn up to 80 kcal per minute.

• Less impact on joints: Thanks to its resistance system, it allows training at high intensity without generating excessive impact on knees and ankles. This makes it an excellent option for rehabilitation and injury prevention.

• Full body workout: Although the main focus is on the lower body, the air bike also activates the upper body, providing a balanced and effective exercise.

• Ideal for short and dynamic workouts: If you prefer intense and short sessions instead of long routines, the air bike is perfect for you. The ratio between time invested and benefits obtained makes it a very efficient tool.
