Does either of these bikes offer a better workout?
My question is if a stationary uprigt bike offers a better workout than doing the same thing on a recumbent bike or vice versa? Or does that bike just offer different levels of comfort? I have included pictures of the 2 bikes I am considering, price is not important just which one offers the better work out. Picture #1 is the upright bike and Picture #2 is a recumbent bike.

The upright one hurts my butt when I ride, but if its the best one to workout on I will suffer through it. I just want the best workout for the time I give, working up towards an hour.
I would really prefer that you bought the real thing. But if you must buy one of them, go for the recumbent. My reasons…?
You want to exercise in comfort, if it becomes too much of a discomfort for you, you will give it up and it will lay in the garage for the next ten years!
Begin as you mean to go on. Take the time to set it up properly for yourself so that you get the best out of it. Start gradually and bit by bit add to the workout by increasing the resistance. Decrease the resistance as you near the end of your work-out. Do your work-out at least once daily for a pre-detrermined amount of time, whether it is ten minutes or an hour and ten minutes. Play some of your fave music while you ride.
Enjoy the experience.
Happy cycling ;= )

Schwinn Active 20 Series Recumbent Exercise Bike Reviews by customers.Was that with an hour and I am a woman. I bought this bike in February to prepare for knee surgery. It is very easy to assemble. It comes with every tool you need. The display is nice and big and easy to understand without the manual. I mostly wanted to express how easy it was to assemble and operate.I used to recover from knee surgery, and now I go almost every morning for 30 minutes, and I’m really, what’s the difference between my feet and weight in general. I had no trouble with it at all.
I love this bike.I is this $ 240 on Amazon and could not be happier.I can not afford to spend $ 499 + for a bike for a workout. It came in perfect condition, and, indeed, more than the estimated shipping.I live in an apartment, and this thing fits perfectly.
