You might be wondering whether to get an elliptical or a mini stationary bike. But what exactly is the difference between the two?
Perhaps the most apparent distinction between a mini-elliptical and a mini-bike is the appearance of the pedals. The pedals of the former are most similar to a real elliptical, while a mini-bike will have the pedals of a larger bike, usually including straps.Â
Aside from this, there really isn’t much of a dissimilarity in terms of exercise intensities or motion performed on the machine, although the elliptical follows more of a stepping movement rather than the circling motion in mini-bikes.
If you have a larger footprint, however, you may want to consider getting an under-desk elliptical, as their pedals or foot rests can better accommodate varying sizes. Now, let’s talk about this Sunny Health desk elliptical’s specs.
