| The exercise bike will have a resistance knob.I usually use an elliptical to exercise. . .so this a change. What ar the physical benefits of cycling? I would love to have an outdoor bike but have to save for one, which will take a long while. Advice please.What are the health benefits as well? Will it help lose weight? What parts of the body other than the legs does cycling help tone, etc? |

| Indoor - weather not important. Less dangerous than road. Better air quality. Short bursts possible. More private. Choose when to apply resistance. Can do something else as well, eg watch TV.Outdoor - Gets you out of the house. Cycling in country should have better air quality. See more scenery. |

| Indoor bike: Weather is no object, you can watch TV or read when biking to help the time go by. It is exercise, which is always a good thing.Outdoor bike: You'll likely get a better workout, have a change of scenery as you ride around, requires more skill/attention to operate, also doubles as alternate transportation (which is a good thing with gas prices being what they are). |
