NordicTrack Commercial VR Review
Heavy Duty Recumbent with Sleeker Design

The New NordicTrack Commercial VR Recumbent models start off with the same heavy duty, commercial gym quality as the original NT Commercial VR then the engineers at NordicTrack go on to add the latest built-in iFit Interactive Training options. NordicTrack Commercial VR

NordicTrack is the high end fitness equipment brand made by ICON Fitness (the largest fitness equipment mfg in the world) and the Commercial VR is one of NordicTrack's top of the line Recumbent Exercise Bikes so you are really getting the best of the best with this recumbent.

This bike is built from quality materials and is very heavy duty, Although the name implies that it is a commercial grade stationary bike, the Commercial VR is, in reality, more of a light grade commercial or high end in-home fitness bike. 

This is actually a good thing since you can get this fitness bike at an in-home fitness room price. The user weight capacity is near commercial fitness equipment levels (this is a good indicator of the bikes durability even if you weigh much less) and you still get a an excellent warranty on all NordicTrack Commercial models ~ which is also good indicators of the bikes overall quality and durability.

Note: The NordicTrack Commercial Recumbents are currently On Sale at NordicTrack. See NordicTrack Price List for the latest price or to buy this recumbent at the lowest price online.

Recumbent Exercise Bikes, like the Commercial VR, provide better back and upper body support, are generally more comfortable than upright models and other fitness equipment yet still give you an excellent aerobic workout for better cardiovascular fitness and weight loss.

Commercial VR Motivational Features

You don't want to under estimate the motivational features of any fitness bike that you are considering. Let's face it, indoor fitness routines are just not as much fun as riding an outdoor bike (for example) so having the more motivational features ~ built-in and optional ~ the more likely it will be that you will spend more time getting or staying fit. NordicTrack and iFit

What really makes the Commercial VR models worth the extra price is the iFit Interactive Training technology with its Virtual Classes, Trainers, Destination Workouts, Google Maps Routes that adjust the resistance of the bike to match the interactive workout. 

in addition to using the bikes built-in touch screen, you have the option to load the iFit app on to your phone or tablet and take it with you (to the gym, for example).

 

About-Bicycles Review

The first thing that I noticed and still really like about the new NordicTrack Commercial VR models, aside from the huge screen, is the new sleeker look and the more ergonomic design when compared to the original Commercial VR or actually most other recumbent exercise bikes.

So although the bike itself is heavy duty and durable recumbent with a comfortable ride and plenty of good back and upper body support but the catch is... You have to use it!... Regularly!

That's where the iFit motivational features help you out. You get virtual coaching, virtual classes, destination workouts (with excellent scenery) and
automatic resistance adjustments to your bike (with an override option) to match the interactive workout  and you can use personal trainers at selected locations or in a class environment.  How's that for some additional motivation?!

OK, sorry to sound a little like a salesman here but I really do like the iFit motivational features and I like this recumbent.
