Please recommend me an exercise bike workout

[bushbaby_de]

Hi chaps,

I have bitten the bullet and bought an exercise bike because this weight isn't going to shift itself and I have to fit into a bikini in just over 2 months time! I used to use one in the gym a few years ago but can't for the life of me remember the workout targets I had (RPM, resistance, time, distance etc etc) so wondered if someone could help.

I'm 29, 5ft 6in and weigh just over 13 stone. Obviously for healthy BMI I need to lose over 2 stone but at the minute I'm after a program that will get me slimmer and fitter PRONTO but not in an unhealthy way!

If someone could give me a few ideas of different programs/targets I and my gut would very much appreciate it!

Please and thank you :)

There is a firm now who rent out rowing machines, just google fitness equipment rental and see what comes up. You can pay mega money for a top bike. Why not just buy a pushbike and go out regularly on it.I think the rowing machine is from concept. Also bikes for indoor can take up a lot of space.

Flitty - I already have the bike, want some advice on what kind of workouts to do on it!

On the biggest loser programme they say do one minute really vigouresly and one minute easy and repeat like that. Take it easy though at first .

Oh yes I remember interval training now, thanks. Hopefully someone can come along to give me an idea of target RPM, time, distance etc as well.

Thanks kathy, that's sort of helpful but its not a spinning bike that I bought. Surely there are some exercise-knowledgeable bods on here that can give me a program?
