Okay, it's not a bicycle, but I think you will forgive us when you discover what this machine can do. We couldn't resist, and we think you won't be able to either. Schwinn continues to amaze us at Stationary Bicycle. As we look over what is offered for exercise options, we constantly look at the number of reviews, and then the overall average rating. A piece of machinery that pulls a 5 star ratine (out of 5), but has only 3 or 4 ratings, doesn't pull much weight with us usually. If a piece of equipment has 150 or so ratings and pulls a 4, that is one we go after. But this Schwinn 430 Elliptical Trainer had over 430 reviews. That tells us people are buying this machine. And it pulled a 4.5 star rating. We rarely see that high a rating when anything gets over 50 reviews. So, Folks, if you are looking for a solid piece of equipment to help tone up that body of yours consider this one. The Schwinn 430 Elliptical Trainer offers eight computer-controlled resistance levels and eight workout programs for workout variety, including six user-profile programs, one manual, and one calorie goal program. Its quick start functions allows you to easily change your resistance level while exercising to challenge yourself to the next level. Three feedback programs--recovery mode, results mode, and body mass index (BMI)--allow you to track the progress of your workout routine. BioGlide motion technology offers a natural-feeling 18-inch stride while the trainer's BioFit design will provide a comfortable feel on the footpads and handlebars. The handlebars also feature grip heart rate monitoring which allows you to track your heart rate while you're exercising. Similar to the exercise position for treadmills, elliptical trainers are used by standing in an upright position while holding the handrails of the machine. With elliptical trainers, however, your feet remain in the foot pedals throughout the exercise regimen and circulate in a smooth and seamless motion, resulting in little to no impact on the knees, back, and hips. This elliptical trainer has a compact footprint 59 inches long by 26 inches wide by 68 inches tall. | |||||||

We at Stationary Bicycle were looking for a good upper body combo to go with the lower body workout. Schwinn came through again. The Schwinn Airdyne Evo Comp Exercise Bike features a smooth, air-based resistance braking system along with a pair of sturdy exercise arms. The advantage of the unique air resistance system is that it offers as much resistance as you can handle. The harder you pedal, the greater the resistance. The integrated exercise arms, meanwhile, make it possible to work out your upper body and your lower body at the same time, unlike most traditional exercise bikes. The friction-free braking system also requires considerably less maintenance than other, more complex systems, so you don't have to spend your hard-earned money on frustrating repairs. And thanks to the sealed cartridge bearings, the Airdyne Evo Comp provides a smooth ride throughout the bike's extra-long life. The Airdyne Evo Comp includes a comprehensive computer console that provides feedback on time, distance, workload level, calories burned, calories per hour, heart rate, and RPM. As a result, it's easy to keep track of your overall fitness level. Other features include an extra-quiet chain and belt drive system equipped with a spring-loaded chain tensioner; built-in heart rate monitoring; an LCD display; a fan wheel that cools the user during exercise; an anatomically correct seat with extra padding; and a capacity of 300 pounds.It also carries the following warranties: 30 years on the frame, 3 years on parts and electronics, and 1 year on labor and wear items. |

We at Stationary Bicycle remember that the Schwinn Airdyne Upright Exercise Bike was popular many years ago. That says the most about this high quality machine. Perhaps it is due to the smooth, air-based resistance braking system.. The advantage of this unique air resistance system is that it offers as much resistance as you can handle. The harder you pedal, the greater the resistance. And it also creates streams of cooling air while you pedal, making for a comfortable home workout. The Airdyne's dual-action arms also help you work out your entire body. It synchronizes your arm and leg movements to simulate your natural motion, helping you work your upper and lower body at the same time.
The Airdyne includes a comprehensive computer console that provides feedback on time, distance, workload level, calories burned, calories per hour, heart rate, and RPM. As a result, it's easy to keep track of your overall fitness level. Other features include an extra-quiet chain drive system; built-in heart rate monitoring; an LCD display; an anatomically correct seat with extra padding; with a 300 pound capacity.
