How to do Seated Bikes
Sit on the floor, lean slightly back with hands behind you for balance. Pedal your legs in a cycling motion, lifting each knee toward the chest while extending the opposite leg.
Common mistakes
Keep your core engaged and avoid rounding the spine. Ensure the cycling motion is smooth without jerking the legs.
Breathing
Exhale as you pull one knee toward your chest; inhale as you extend it out. Continue in a rhythmic manner.
