Cycle boxer LOL
Saw an ad for this on TV today- cracked me up.
Pedal & 'whack-a-mole' with boxing gloves.
Can't wait for the cage fight version!

Real punches come form the hip. I'm not sure how one can do that while sitting on a bike seat pedaling.
That said, I wouldn't mind taking one for a test ride just for kicks. (or should that be "punches"?) But no way would I ever want to use it regularly or buy one.
Oh, and thanks for posting this WC. Fun times!

Well.. technically the concept is sound even if the advertising is OTT.
Anytime you engage the upper body as well as the lower body you will increase the aerobic work load. It's the principle behind eliptecal trainers, cross country skiing and rowing.
And, adding a cognitive component such as trying to match the light cues would also create a benefit for reaction time. As a physical rehab assistant I do a similar low tech exercise by tossing a balloon from different angles at seated clients so they can poke it with their hands.
Imagine the first sissy that suggested using a girls skipping rope for boxers.

Wow. That commercial belongs on Saturday Night Live, if they played it during the show, probably 75% of viewers would think it was a skit.
Some enterprising inventor needs to combine the exercise bike with the Shake Weight. For the ultimate fat-burning indoor workout.

I guess you guys would laugh at speed bags too, unless the experts throw punches at those from the hip
It's just an exercise bike, not a mechanical substitute for Mickie.
Ps. How do you throw a jab from the hip? That's the closest boxing punch this is simulating.

Don't forget the tug toner.
Possibly NSFW due to innuendo. No nakedness or anything, just innuendo.

Cycle boxer might help guys like Froome improve their punching power from the saddle when they're accosted by costumed guys who look like rejects from Tug Toner auditions during the TdF.
