Does an exercise bike tone places besides legs?

I am looking to lose weight especially my belly. I always thought an exercise bike only helped your legs. I ride an exercise bike for 5 miles everyday plus 50 push ups and 200 crunches. Will this routine help me lose belly fat?


Answer
Any cardio will help you shed excess body fat. Keep up the crunches for definition in your abs.

If I ride an exercise bike will it help me run faster and longer?

I would like to run faster and farther. I have not exercised since high school (6 years ago). I just decided to start exercising now. I'm not overweight or anything (5 foot 8 & 162lbs). I would just like to get into better shape. So would using an exercise bike in conduction with me running a little bit everyday help more? or is it better to just run and bypass the bike.


Answer
I had exercise bikes for years, and consider myself to be somewhat of an expert!

The repetitive, unchanging motion of a bike is good for building the quadraceps and calves, but too much, in my opinion.

I think it's an excellent idea to do both. It keeps the progress going as the body doesn't get used to a routine, and running works all the leg muscles, lower abs, even arms. If you add light weights, it creates even more variety.
