One of the reasons why people choose to use indoor exercise equipment rather than to, for instance, go for a jog or a cycle outside, is because the modern models are often enhanced with the technology to monitor your workouts. As a cutting-edge concept, this exercise bicycle by João Montenegro and Gregório Rodrigues features an interactive screen that does even more than show your speed, distance traveled and calories burned.
The spinning machine is equipped with sensors that gather data about your workout progress as well as your environmental performance. It's all made available to you on various pages of the built-in display. The same system includes a smartphone dock so that you can use your fitness apps and have access to your music collection for entertainment while you pedal.
