Life Fitness R3 Basic Recumbent Bike

The R3 Recumbent with Basic Console is representative of the quality and comfort that the Lifecycle brand invariably offers. It is a state-of-the-art machine designed to make working out an enjoyable experience. As far as comfort goes, the reclining seat with a 20 degrees range of motion is a very significant feature. With its flexibility, it will be able to accommodate users of different physical proportions and preferences. Besides, it has a breathable mesh fabric on its back, which users will especially appreciate during a sweaty workout! The pedals have a special non-slip surface, and padded straps to secure one’s feet. The pedaling motion is very smooth, and generates absolutely no unpleasant sound.

The Life Fitness R3 Recumbent comes with 10 different pre-set workout programmes, so there is no question of this exercise bike ever becoming monotonous, repetitive or boring. Users can choose from workout programmes such as Manual mode, Hill, Random, Cardio, Career and Race. Each one offers a different kind of a challenge. The bike also has a Qucik Start and Cool Down mode. The latter adapts itself according to the nature and intensity of the workout just completed. The interface is very user-friendly, and the statistics are conveniently and clearly displayed. The bike comes with contact heart rate monitors, and two different user profiles. So, both, your partner and you can save your own statistics and track your own individual progress.

One great feature of the Life Fitness R3 Recumbent is that it is self-powered. What this means is that users no longer need to bear the hassle of power cords and outlets. It can be placed anywhere in the house, and moved about without any trouble. As far as the quality of the machine itself and its construction is concerned, one could not expect any better. The sturdy, welded steel frame is very durable and comes with a lifetime warranty. There is a five years warranty on the alternator, and the other parts all have warranty periods of 3 years. All in all, the Life Fitness R3 Recumbent, with its versatility, is just as good a product for beginners as it is for hardcore fitness buffs.
