Air-Bike

Individual work

At first glance, the air bike looks similar to a bicycle ergometer or a spinning bike. However, the difference lies in the fact that not only the legs but also the arm and core muscles are used, as these are required for the movement of the air bike. As the handles are pulled along with the hands, the legs and arms move simultaneously. This makes it an ideal device for a holistic warm-up of the muscles and joints (choose a moderate speed).

As the name suggests, the air resistance is a special feature of the air bike. The intensity of the training is regulated solely by the air resistance. The faster the pedalling movement, the higher the air resistance, and therefore the more strenuous the warm-up programme/training. On the one hand, this ensures intuitive operation of the device, which is an additional fun factor for many athletes, and on the other hand, the air resistance ensures that the joints are protected.
