You can use the bike to build aerobic endurance, VO2 max, speed, and work capacity.  We talk about the ideal workouts to optimize health markers for longevity and health span.

 

And for those who are time-pressed, don't let optimal be the enemy of good enough. We give a few ideas for short workouts that pay big dividends.
