I'd say either a treadmill, since its slightly harder than a stationary bike, or a real bike. You can work up quite a sweat on trails and stuff.

bike or treadmill

Personally,i like to use the treadmill,i find i always get a better cardiovascular workout. But if you have not so good knee's or discover you have pain when using the treadmill then the bike works too, you may just want to use the harder levels.
