n Lower body workout
Once you are in position and sitting comfortably, slowly begin pedaling,
with your hands resting comfortably on the handlebars. Pedal casually and
rhythmically at a low resistance level until you feel secure and comfortable.
As you feel more and more comfortable, experiment with seat positions and
resistance levels.
n Upper body positioning
For added enjoyment, comfort and variety during your workout, experiment
with moving your hands to various positions on the handlebars (Fig 7).
