The best air bikes are different from standard exercise bikes in a few key ways. First, they usually include elliptical-style handles that you push and pull in tandem with your pedaling, thus providing the kind of full-body workout you won’t find on most bikes. Second, air bikes are motorless — resistance is generated naturally by the fan at the front of the bike, which spins in accordance with your movements. Like curved treadmills , the harder you push, the harder the machine pushes back.  Though air bikes are easier on the joints than treadmills , their self-powered design makes for moderate- to high-intensity exercise that can be difficult to sustain over long periods. They are, however, perfect for quick and intense full-body workouts that can torch calories while strengthening the arms, glutes, quads, and core.
