What are some benefits of a recumbent stamina bike versus a treadmill? Running can cause some stress to the ankles and legs if your not condition'd for it. Running and walking are better for cardio and fat burning process. But biking is enjoyable and relaxing. Mix it up and do both. You'll find it has good results when you do both. There is no substitution for a nice walking program. The treadmill offers the best alternative to walking. Recumbent stamina bike only will exercise your legs and not your entire body. It is true that you will burn some calories but in the long run, you will have better results with the treadmill. well i don't know what a recumbent stamina bike is but i guessing its just an ordinary excerise bike and depending on how u use them they pretty much do the same thing altho the bike will give u more calf muscles than the treadmill they are both good for cardio tho Hi there! Recumbent bike is going to focus more on your legs (quads). It is also easier for a lot of people to do so they are more apt to continue the exercise program using it. Treadmill is more for body locomotion, it calls into play more muscles into the movement so you will get a better totally body workout with it. Regarding your question on stamina, both elevate your heart rate and are thus good for cardio stamina. However, as mentioned above, the stamina on the bike will be in your quads, where treadmill will be less in the legs but more all over. I believe this answers your question, but if not, you may email me. Good luck on your diet and fitness goals! Trainer Gregg gregg@leandownsite.com "You can achieve anything you set your mind on."
