Cycling - Push Those Pedals to Lose Weight and Get Fit

Pedal power, in all its varieties (road bike, exercise bike, or spinning bike) offers a wide range of health benefits including:

a.) Excellent calorie burn. (Typically 400 calories an hour for an exercise bike, 700-800 for a road bike, and 1000 for a spinning bike.)

b.) Superior cardiovascular conditioning. Cycling builds stamina and increases endurance while lower resting heart rate. Generally individuals who cycle regularly have a resting heart rate in the mid to low 60s.

c.) Lower body toning. Cycling is especially good to build leg muscles and for women, whose problem areas are often the hips and thighs, the slimming effect can be almost magical.

Many people prefer to cycle outdoors because there's really nothing to replace the freedom and adventure to be had exploring under your own foot power. <Road bikes average $300-$400 for a correctly fitted, beginning model that includes:

1.) A comfortable saddle appropriate to the rider's gender.
2.) A rack to carry a water bottle. (Drinking water is recommended every 20 minutes during a lengthy ride.)
3.) A ride computer that registers speed and distance traveled.
4.) Gears to assist with handling terrain.
5.) Appropriate illumination via reflectors and/or lights.
6.) Safety helmet.

These items represent the bare minimum for safe and effective operation. A ride computer is especially important as cycling is, generally speaking, an exercise in which the rider competes against himself for better speed and longer distances traveled.

Using a Heart Monito

Where weight loss is the goal, it is also recommended that the cyclist use a heart monitor which includes a chest strap and a wrist unit that measures duration of exercise, time in "the zone" (your target heart rate to accomplish fat burning), average and maximum heart rate, and calories burned. One pound equals 3500 calories. If you manage a 500 calorie deficit (burn or expend more than you consume) you'll lose approximately one pound per week.

For individuals who do not like to be out in the elements, an exercise bike can be a comfortable way to cycle daily in the comfort of your own home. Many riders watch television while they pedal and cycling DVDs are available to create the illusion that you are traveling through the hills of the California wine country or perhaps the French countryside. Recumbent exercise bikes with their bucket seats are especially comfortable. For some riders, the different angle at which the recumbent bike places the body is even more effective for body slimming and overall the position is easier for the back and the backside.Spinning Bikes for Indoor Cycling
