A conditional sentence is a sentence in which one thing depends on another.

I will get fit |
if I ride my bike every day. |
The two clauses can be swapped around.
If I ride my bike every day I will get fit.
I will get fit if I ride my bike every day.
We sometimes use a comma if the conditional part of the sentence comes first.
If I ride my bike every day, I will get fit.
Other conjunctions can be used in conditional sentences as well as 'if'.
