You’d like to get moving. But an exercise bike sounds so boring.<\/p>\n

Not so!<\/p>\n

This week, as part of the UNMC Winter Activity Decathlon, check out the Expresso virtual-reality bikes at the Center for Healthy Living.<\/p>\n

Monitors on the bikes’ dashboards show a video game-like course, accompanied by resistance effects that correspond with going up- or downhill. Participants can ride the 1-mile Expresso Speedway course to take part in the decathlon’s virtual bike race.<\/p>\n

Virtual-reality bikes can keep you motivated with changing courses and terrains, group rides or real-time races, video-game incentives (pick up coins or catch dragons) or even racing the “ghost” of your previous-best ride.
\nStop by the CFHL any time this week to check out the bikes.<\/a> <\/p>\n

The decathlon is a 10-week challenge for UNMC employees, and is designed to increase activity and show us the activity options that are available on campus. The event is in its last two weeks.<\/p>\n

Keep watching UNMC Today for more, or go to www.unmc.edu\/decathlon<\/a>. Questions? Email cfhladmin@unmc.edu<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Book sale set for Wednesday through Friday<\/b><\/p>\n
