I'd say that its best practice to do any cardiovascular activity daily that sustains the proper exercise heart rate for your age bracket for at least 30 minutes. Interval workouts can increase endurance and burn more calories. If there are health concerns then consult a physician before doing anything. Also, you "start" and exercise bike by peddling...
