How many calories will biking burn in 40 minutes?

Answer 1

There's really no telling, as it depends hugely on the diffculty of the ride.

On a fairly technical singletrack I'd get it done in about one hour, probably using about 800-900 calories. On an easier ride, I'd get it done in maybe 30 minutes for 300-400 calories. A person that's smaller than average would use slightly less calories and a bigger guy would use more.

Answer 2

It depends on the intensity. Anywhere from 100-500+ calories. A stationary bike can give you a decent estimate of the number of calories burned.

Answer 3

At a steady speed of 10mph you would lose approximately 2,700 calories.

Answer 4

Depends on how hard you rode. If you got sweaty and winded, probably about 300
