Time for riding the stationary bike is coming quick. Well, winter is going to be kicking in here in Alberta soon enough.

I have been riding my bike still and now this week is great but the weekend does not seem so good. This winter I will be riding a stationary bike that is sitting in the bedroom and has been collecting dust over the summer.

In thinking about this I found the following article about the benefits of riding a bike for exercise.

  1. If I will be asked to choose which type of exercise I prefer most, it’s definitely cycling. It’s the most enjoyable way of exercising. You can watch tv while doing it inside your home and I think it’s not a boring thing to do especially when you do cycling outside your home. It’s the healthiest and fun way of losing 🙂 Btw, thanks for posting the article. A very good read. Thanks! 🙂

  2. Hey, you should consider moving to Vancouver where you can exercise all year round. There are a few days in January of course where the snow makes it impossible to even walk anywhere, but well over 11 months have exercise worthy weather days.

    1. Actually I grew up in Vancouver but did not exercise outside as much as I should have. Seems like a waste when the weaher is nice to work out inside.

      OK Everyone don’t miss summer! Get outside and workout! 🙂

  3. from what i have read recently it seems like strength-training exercises that build muscle are the way to go for people who are focusing on loss. the higher your ratio of muscle to overall body , the higher your metabolism is going to be, and the more calories you burn even when you are not exercising.
