Just a question on what MFP would classify this as for cardio calories. It's a 2 in 1 elliptical. You can sit on it and ride it as a bike. Or push the seat back ( so it's not in the way) and stand up holding the handles while walking/ stepping on it? Just curious. I am sure there's better equipment out there, but not all people have thousands of dollars and not all people want or can go to a gym. So for the sake of asking, I'm curious.

    Stationary bicycling? Monitor your weight and if you are losing you are good. If not, adjust the calorie burn.

    When you use it as the elliptical, log it as elliptical. When you use it as a stationary bike, log it as a stationary bike.

    Thank you so much. That is what I was thinking, but a second mind of knowledge is always reassuring.
