How good of an exercise is 30-45 minutes on a recumbant bike? Is it a good cardio exercise for person with bad knees ?

    Yes, it is, as long as you're at a level hard enough that your HR is elevated. I use the recumbent bike for 15 minutes after doing 30-45 on the treadmill. I like mixing up my cardio routine.

    The recumbent bike is excellent for your butt, too! My glutes always burn when I'm riding.

    I also bike after my run. Works different muscles and gives me a complete work out.
