Why I Bought a Crossfit Bike for Cardio

To be fair, these older bikes were used for rehab purposes mostly, but Crossfit has popularized them once again. I noticed recently that I was largely inactive outside my few hours lifting each week. I've been trying to figure out a way to increase my activity level and be as efficient about it as possible. I think I found the answer.

Since not many people read the description, these older bikes were used for rehab purposes mostly, but Crossfit has popularized them once again. I also realize the seat is too low in the first clip. It was the first time I sat on it so it was at the previous owners height. I raised the seat right after, as you can see in the talking portion of the video.

[@Troy1g]

I have an airdyne my favorite of all

[@BigV24]

Bought one last year and the results during lockdown for me and working from home over the last 2-3 months have been amazing. I remember your video when I was doing some research, so I’m glad I watched this. 💯

[@BasementBrandon]

Thanks for sharing!

[@marktroddyn3351]

just put my air assault bike together. put my wife on it and made her do 20 second work and 10 second rest cycles for 4 minutes. laughed at her because she was gonna puke. then I tried....stopped laughing really fast.

[@BasementBrandon]

Hah they will wreck ya!

[@ayo30s]

[@firefit12]

The seat is way to low Brother

[@BasementBrandon]

Lol yeah I raised it up after filming the intro. I literally haven't had time to change anything (or clean it) since I got it!

[@charles8557]

Brandon Campbell Diamond Lol I can understand how you are ridiculously busy, but to suggest you don't have 5 seconds in your day to raise the seat is a bit ridiculous.

[@BasementBrandon]

Charles lol I didn’t mean it like that. I literally hadn’t used it before I filmed that first clip so I didn’t realize it was too low until after. I didn’t care enough to raise it to refilm:)

[@charles8557]

Ah fair enough, I kinda thought you might not have raised the seat on purpose to avoid an awkward angle with your arms since you're such a big guy. Have you found that pushing and pulling with your arms is difficult with the seat higher?

[@kevinperry5816]

As a bicycle fit guy at a bicycle shop I was in pain watching Brandon pedal at that height. Lol

[@MattFromWork]

I have literally just discovered the magic of these bikes myself. Great review as always, and It's just nice to see something like this that was made of quality.

If you have only enough money for one device, then the Airdyne is the one I would buy. Older models are better (there was a time when the handlebars would crack because of metal fatigue, but when it happened to me I took the handlebars to a local welder and they were fixed up fine -- no problems since). The keys for the digital timer are the machines weak points. I have had mine for about 40 years. It is uncomfortable and I hate it sometimes and take a break by going to the gym's treadmill, but it is the one I use when I need result (17 minutes plus every morning). I am closer to 80 than 70. The one exercise that I could never do is the push (hurts too much). Place your feet on the foot rests and then using open palms push on the handles trying to achieve a load factor of 4 or 5 for five minutes (the late Mike Webster of the Steelers could perform this exercise for 45 minutes). As my physician (he was physician to the Steelers) explained to me, the Airdyne was the only cardio machine that exercised above and below the heart. Other exercises include a crossover, place feet on rest and then place both hands on one handle (rowing) and then raise the load factor to 4 or 5 for 1 or 2 minutes. Then changes sides and repeat. Then return to hands and feet. I use the Airdyne in conjunction with YoTube bike riding videos. Diet together with the Airdyne produces good result.

[@BasementBrandon]

They are great.

[@marcus_ohreallyus]

My Rogue Echo Bike is built like a Sherman tank and it gasses me out in about 5 minutes. I got one for the house because I used the bike at my gym last summer to get ripped. I really do attribute my leanness to after-weights sessions on the Echo Bike.

[@BasementBrandon]

Def kicks my ass too

[@jonathanziegler8126]

I discovered Tabata training probably 30 years ago? I discovered the Schwinn Airdyne 20+ years ago. I do not always do "sprint" (or Tabata) training,, sometimes I use the Airdyne for Cooper Aerobic Points. Regardless, the Schwinn Airdyne fits for whatever aerobic/cardio training I am doing.

[@BasementBrandon]

Right on!

[@ErikTheElectric]

I'm beyond f*cking excited for you right now.

[@BasementBrandon]

Once I get some practice you and I can race... might just take me 10 more years to get to that level lol

[@edwardharris4702]

My wife found one of these set out on trash day and I didn't think it was worth it. Fixed the monitor and replaced the pedals and it was good to go. Didn't realize what a solid find it was until this video.

[@BasementBrandon]

pretty sweet score.

[@sehnzeleid]

I had a Schwinn of a similar age, after a few months of thirty minute sessions small ball bearings started flinging out of the drive system causing the pedaling motion to get real coarse. Got a Rogue Echo Bike which made the old Schwinn seem like a kid's toy.

[@BasementBrandon]

Never had that issue with mine, although the Echo is belt driven vs chain driven so it makes sense.

[@CAHOP2401]

Please do a video log of the restoration of it. These things are still $175 - $250 in my area. Just picked one of these and a C2 model D for $800. Great piece of cardio equipment.

[@BasementBrandon]

Yeah considered the rower as well, but preferred the smaller footprint of the bike.

[@JimintheGym]

I love my echo bike, but my brother got a pristine airdyne for like $100. Now I can add you to the list of guys I'm jealous of, too. $100 for a piece of equipment like this is a fantastic bargain. That's $650 that you saved and can use for a couple new barbells or something. I'm jealous, TBH.

[@BasementBrandon]

Lol as mentioned I would love to have the Echo bike, but from a use vs price stand point it didn't make sense.

[@inkmeal]

I jacked up my hip running and needed a way to add a decent amount of cardio to fill the void. For whatever reason, between battle ropes and the AD6 I bought, my hip healed in record time. These are amazing alternate cardio methods if you can't run... and even if you can run, these burn more calories faster and the results are way better...I stick by the heavy bag, battle ropes and the air bikes.

[@BasementBrandon]

Right on!

[@danieljohnson327]

I used one of those in the 70s when I was in wrestling for cardio I bought one now I am 58 and I love it I have a big fat soccer mom ass and I love the seat. It is so well constructed nothing today even compares to the construction of an older Schwinn air dyne

[@BasementBrandon]

Right on!

[@sophiawoods6748]

Probably the most underrated ever. The only thing as close as airdyne is sprinting up hill and max speed and feeling like your dying.

[@BasementBrandon]

Got winded reading that.

[@McKinleyGriggs]

Kickin it Old school! Luv it!

[@BasementBrandon]

Doesn't fit in with my modern day over priced gym lol

[@katrosario57]

I am disabled and I can't run or walk for long periods of time, so I just bought one for less than a $100 dollars. I got it on Black Friday from walmart and I also own a rowing machine. The rowing machine has been great but I want to burn more fat and also, simulate walking, since I can't walk for long periods of time this bike will help with motion and resistance while keeping my butt in the seat and taking the load of my legs. So, I am ready to continue my way to health. I smoke and I have been feeling breathing better and smoking less also. No diet, no nothing just the desire to make some changes in my life. I am not getting any younger. So, let's see.

[@BasementBrandon]

Good luck!

[@senyah]

Airdyne bikes are what they are called. Not crossfit bikes. These bikes are used for many sports today. A lot of fighters use them for cutting weight because they use a lot of movement for when the fighter is drained physically.

[@BasementBrandon]

Agreed, but I think most newer trainees associate them with crossfit (i've always associated them with rehab). You know KZbin is all about the title and I figured it would draw in more people.

[@BasementBrandon]

I think it's hit or miss, a lot of people end up getting wind deflectors.

[@kendokickboxing1356]

comparing the elliptical versus airdyne bike is like comparing an NBA team to a junior high school basketball team. see the difference? it wouldn't matter if it was the worst team in the league, they would still beat a team of junior high school all starts. that is how much better the airdyne bike is compared to the elliptical. Get rid of your elliptical and get an airdyne bike.

[@tidefanyankee2428]

I bought a Rogue Echo bike. It is the most evil, wicked piece of exercise equipment I've ever used. I've tried Versa Climbers, Concept II rowers, etc.... Nothing beats the assault type bikes in my opinion. Nothing I've used can take me to the brink faster. The tabata's are already loaded...20/10, 10/20, distance, time you name it. Oh, and it's built like a TANK. My great grandchildren will be cursing my name if they use it, because it will be around LONG after I'm gone. It's worth every penny. Want a great full body, fat burning workout? Combine an assault bike with kettlebells.....

[@tidefanyankee2428]

I'll second what Brandon says about using it for a warm up. It's easy on the joints too. One great workout/warm up I use is to go 30 secs at a decent pace with arms and legs. Then 30 seconds just arms (put your feet on the pegs), then 30 seconds with just legs and finish with 30 seconds with arms and legs. Done. You can increase the times/intensity if you want to use it as a different kind of HIIT training. It's a piece of equipment you'll love.....and hate.
