Depends on how hard you go at it, and what your eating habits are like.
If you ride for 30 minutes/day, at a level of effort that gets you sweaty and winded, it can use up a decent amount of calories - which certainly can help with weight loss.
But if you're overeating badly, 30 minutes won't be enough to to let you lose any weight.
Likewise, 30 minutes of just casually turning the pedals won't use up any important amount either.
Depends on how hard you ride. If you're only pootling around - not many. If you're getting sweaty and winded, as much as 400.
The degree of resistence will determine how much. You would have to account for your weight, the weight of the bike, the surface you're riding on, the material, density and texture of the tires you're riding on, the angle of the surface you're riding on...It's subjective, so has no one right answer.
Riding a bike is good for your cardio and will give you great legs. It may help you gain a flat stomach as well depending on how long you ride and how fast.
Riding a bike consumes about 0.049 calories per pound of body weight per minute. This means that a person weighing 150 pounds would burn approximately 7.35 calories per minute while biking.
about 50-60 psi for uphill riding
Chemistry has been involved in the production of pretty much every part of the bike. All from the paint to refining the metals the bike is made of.
Ice is slippery, right?
Pretty much all of them.
I don't think it will do much except flatten the grass and kill it.
about 150
Not a lot really.Let's say you're doing 9 MPH, which should be real easy if you're staying on a decent road. That'll mean that you're done in 20 minutes, tops. And at that level of effort, you're maybeable to use up 450 cals/hour, which would put your burn at 150 calories or something like that.It's about 1/3 of a cupcake's worth of calories.
Burning calories is a lot more about how hard and how long, rather than about what you do.If you get equally sweaty and winded, you'll burn pretty much the same amount of calories regardless of what you do.
