Burning Calories on a Bike

You burn calories with every move you make, even breathing burns calories.
One of the best exercises to burn calories would be to ride a bicycle.
Riding a bicycle can burn over 1,000 calories per an hour.
It is hard to find an exercise that can burn that many calories an hour and an exercise that you can do for at least an hour or more.
Other exercises like running, elliptical machines, lifting weights can all burn a lot of calories but it is tough to work out for an hour with those exercises and even tougher to continue past an hour.
Cycling is an excellent choice of exercise when you're trying to find an exercise that is easy on the body and burn calories.
Although cycling alone is a great way to burn calories there are ways of burning more calories with different methods of riding.
You can continually ride for an hour or more at the same effort and pace and be burning calories the entire time.
But when you change the intensity of your riding your heart rate lowers and rises.
The lowering and rising of your heart rate allows your body to burn more fat and uses your fat as energy.
When riding at the same pace continually you not burning as much fat as you could be because your body saves our fat as energy because it knows you will be exercising for a long period of time.
When you change the intensity of your bike riding your body think you are body during your rest periods and does not save you fat for energy.
It will in fact start burning your fat to use for energy for each intense period.
When looking at bikes that are the best for exercising I would recommend a road bicycle.
You can get a mountain bike if you plan on riding trails or a stationary bike but some people do not have access to trails and a stationary bike can become very boring.
A road bike is probably the best choice but in the end any bike should fine.
You may need to build up to an hour but once you hit an hour you will find it will be very easy to continue onto longer periods of riding and will find that you could hit 2 or 3 hour rides and end up burning 2,000-3,000 calories.
Cycling is the easiest exercise on your body for burning the most amounts of calories in a given amount of time.
