Should I ride my recumbent bike for 1 hour a day or make it into 2 one half hour sessions?

05 Apr

Do the two half hours a few hours apart spark my metabolism twice or is is it better to do it all at once? Does it make a difference?

Is it better for me to walk for an hour or bike for half an hour?

04 Apr

I’m out of shape and starting up again from scratch.

If my 2 choices are walk for an hour, or go to the gym and do half hour on a recumbent bike, which is better for a beginner?

thanks
Jogging would be better, but until i lose a good 20 lbs, it’s too much stress on my knees

How many calories do you burn per hour on an exercise bike?

11 Mar

And when I say exercise bike I mean like a stationary bike not an actual bike you ride outside.
I’m 5′0, 137 pounds and 17 years old.

Thanks!

 

Who believes that TDF time trials went an hour at 42 mph?

07 Mar

The maximum gearing for flat ground speeds on a road bike, even if using a huge 56t chainring and an unusually high geared cassette falls slightly short of the 42mph sustained advertised speeds.

Since these were not present in most cases and neither Schlumph HI-Speed Drive nor Shimano Capreo nor SRAM’s recumbent hub were present to actually provide the gearing, I think the press fed us a line of bunk.

Upon asking a reliable source about advertised speeds without the necessary gearing being visible, he said: “Don’t believe everything you read.”

Yet, if the speed was actually Kilometers Per Hour, KPH, the speed of 26 MPH doesn’t quite sound challenging enough for the world’s best athletes unless there were some fierce headwinds or lots of hills with the end of the course at higher elevation than the start.

Neither possibility makes much sense, but only one is physically possible–unless the course was entirely downhill (it wasn’t).

What do you think?
