Wow! blown away by all the incredible info on this site. Finally found a site with real answers to my questions. So glad to be here!

 

Question for anyone out there:  I like my recumbent bike for exercise. But how do I know for sure if I am going at a "moderate" speed  or a "vigorous" speed? I average between 16 and 17 mph.  Can anyone tell me what that qualifies as?

 

I have hip problems and find the bike to be easiest on me. Once the winter chill has gone, I hope to be out with my dogs walking.

Hi Cindy,

Welcome, and be sure to check out all the different forums.

I can't say about your exercise machine, but you'll find a general answer to your question on intensity levels here:
