How big is it?
This is basically like getting the lower bottom half of your normal average everyday exercise bike and sticking it onto the bottom of your Total Gym. The Total Gym Cyclo Trainer is approximately 26 x 21.2 x 9 .2 inches, and coming in at 37.9 pounds this makes it by far the smallest and lightest home exercise bike(ish) you’ll find.
One of the best parts about the Cyclo trainer is its design. The Total Gym itself was designed to take up as little space in your home as possible, while giving you the best workout possible. The Cyclo trainer was designed to fit right with your very own Total Gym, so no need to try and figure out where to store it.
What can it tell me?
The Total Gym Cyclo Trainer comes at the battery-operated digital monitor, but don’t expect it to do a whole lot. It tells you your basics like time, speed, distance, and resistance levels, but that’s about it. If you’re already using the Total Gym, then you probably won’t be missing the computer monitor. So this actually may be a very nice addition to your routine.
While most other cycles have preprogrammed workouts the Total Gym’s Cyclo trainer comes with a work along DVD. To save you from disappointment we want to let you know right now, Chuck Norris is not in the DVD. Although there is nothing stopping you from watching Sidekicks while on your Cyclo Trainer.
Do I have to put together?
Like the Total Gym itself, the Total Gym Cyclo Trainer comes practically fully assembled. If you put together the Total Gym yourself chances are you’ll be able to put this together.
Is a challenging?
Because of its unique design not only do you get a good legwork out, but you also include your abs, back, and glutes. So it’s effectively firing off more muscle groups than your average cycle.
The Total Gym Cyclo Trainer comes with various levels of resistance, that are easy to change throughout your workout. One of the best parts about this particular type of cycle is that this is something like can certainly grow with you for many years to come. By combining the Cyclo Trainer’s various levels of resistance, with the Total Gym’s various level of resistance you have one smooth, comfortable, challenging workout ahead of you.
Is it uncomfortable?
The Total Gym Cyclo Trainer wins the prize for most comfortable cycle out there. Since there is no actual bike, it’s only an attachment that goes at the bottom of your Total Gym, you get the comfort and use of the Total Gym’s slight pad as your support. Which can help ease stress off your body, and have less impact on your joints. In fact this is so comfortable that it may very well lead you to much longer more precise workouts.
What do others have to say (User Reviews)?
If you are already in love with your Total Gym, then chances are you’re going to be ecstatic with the Total Gym Cyclo Trainer. For the price, size, and strength you really can’t go wrong with this purchase. With its ability to fit nicely with your Total Gym, you can have a true full body workout experience.
Warranty
The only downside to the Total Gym Cyclo Trainer is its warranty. With only a six month warranty it definitely can scare any buyer. Fortunately from our research many have had their Cyclo trainer for years on end with no problem and will have continued use with it.
Our conclusion
The Total Gym Cyclo trainer is absolutely the greatest choice you can make if you’re in the market for a new exercise bike. The biggest downside is that it will only work if you already own the Total Gym. So if you already own a Total Gym and are happy with its results, then you would be foolish to not add this to your routine, or worse buy a different exercise bike altogether. Of course this is under the assumption that you’re not trying to train for a triathlon. If that’s the case that this is definitely not what you’re looking for. Outside of that, then this is definitely a bargain, and practically a steal.
