Using a bicycle in city conditions to burn fat deposits is an extremely dangerous trick. According to the experienced fitness trainer Lev Goncharov, during training aimed at burning fat, it is important to observe one mandatory condition, which in the case of a bicycle is not fulfilled.
In order to effectively burn fat during cardio training, it is necessary to maintain a fairly high heart rate. This indicator is individual for each individual person, but on average they are 120-150 beats per minute. It is at such a pulse that effective burning of fat occurs without harm to the body. At the same time, Goncharov notes, it is possible to achieve such a high rate in urban conditions, but it will be dangerous, both for the cyclist himself and for those around him.
"The problem in this case is that cyclists often ride on footpaths and can simply hit someone, and in the case of riding on the roadway, they can get under the wheels of a car. In general, skating in the city is a very dangerous venture, and therefore you have to drive with stops and slowdowns, which does not allow you to achieve a high heart rate," the expert noted.
The coach also added that cycling can really help you lose weight, but it's much easier to achieve high results with regular running training. As for cycling, parks with bike paths and country velodromes, where you can increase your speed without looking back at pedestrians and other traffic, are the ideal choice for this.
