What are the benefits of a spinning bike and how to adjust the seat during riding?
First of all, the sport of spinning can significantly improve the human body's cardiopulmonary function. Good cardiopulmonary function is the foundation for any exercise. Secondly, it consumes a lot of energy. A spinning class generally lasts 45-60 minutes and will consume at least 500 calories. In addition, regular spinning exercise will improve people's ability to absorb and utilize oxygen and speed up the body's metabolism. The increase in metabolism will speed up the decomposition of fat. Thirdly, riding a stationary bicycle can mobilize the main muscle groups of the lower limbs, play a shaping role in targeting large muscle groups such as buttocks and thighs, and enhance the body's lower limb muscle strength. Moreover, spinning courses often have very cool venues, with lighting, music and course arrangement in place, making people feel very excited and in high spirits. There are also coaches who lead the class with many students, even those who do not like sports. It is also easy for people to persevere.
In order to exercise comfortably, we need to understand that there are several places on a general spinning bike that can be adjusted. The seat height, handlebar height and the order of the seats are very important.
1.Adjust the seat height
The highest point of the saddle should be at the same level as your thighs when you lift your legs.
2.Adjust handlebar height
The handlebar height remains the same as the seat height. If you are pregnant or have back problems, you can adjust the handlebars higher.
3. Adjust the front and rear position of the seat
There are some tips for adjusting the front-to-back distance of the seat, which need to be adjusted in the car. First, sit with your butt at the farthest end of the seat. When the footrest is at the lowest position, put your heels on the footrest. At this time, the legs can be straight or slightly bent. Next, while the pedals are still at their lowest position, place the balls of your feet on the pedals. At this time, the knee joint curvature is at 23-35 degrees. Finally, when the pedals are at a level, check whether the knee joint and the middle of the pedals are in a straight line. If these three requirements are not met, please adjust the front and rear position and height of the seat.
