stationary bike

Gym cycling machine

A stationary bike is an exercise machine that simulates cycling while remaining in place.

The pedals turn a weighted flywheel, providing resistance for cardiovascular workouts.

Unlike outdoor bicycles, stationary bikes are designed for indoor use at gyms or homes: I do thirty minutes on the stationary bike every morning.
