Running doesn't take you very far. My brother in law prefers running, because cycling takes so long to burn calories Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If one wants to make time stand still run on a treadmill or ride an indoor cycle.Sent from my iPad using Thailand Forum - Thaivisa mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People wanting to lose weight can drop it a hundred times faster on a keto diet.It takes 30 minutes just to burn off a donut and coffee.. Burning off a pizza maybe half a day lolI see people in my gym at the condo going for years without losing an inch of gut. Just so much misinformation out there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just so much misinformation out there I don't think he burns calories to lose weight. He drinks sensibly to lose weight. As you say, he burns calories to work his heart and build up his muscles. I think he's a bit competitive as well. SC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BBJ Posted April 5, 2018 Author Share Posted April 5, 2018 Like I said before, adventure and enduro riding is the best workout for me. I do use the gym for cycling and swimming at the gym provided at the health club on the estate, but I bought an elliptical machine for home. Works better for me because I need a beat to keep me going and headphones annoy me. Blast the music in my own home without bothering others and use the music as a target. I'm hoping to get back into tennis if my shoulder holds so I think the combo of stuff will be good. As for weight, I've never been fat as I have always been active. I took running up because of my injured shoulder that prevented me from playing tennis and that's when I started to put the pounds on. It's more about maintaining my weight and keeping fit as the cardio definitely helps when you handling a 200kg bike at 120kph plus on dirt.
