How many calories do I burn when cycling into work?
I have a morning cycle into work that lasts about 50 minutes, along a canal track (so I can keep a steady 25KmPH pace most of the way without too many hill climbs etc) and the length is just under 20Km. How many calories do I burn doing this? Estimated, of course, but I'd be interested to know. Thanks.
This is about 1 apple or one of McDonald's very smallest hamburgers.
However, your body has muscles developed during this sport. Those muscles must be fed and repaired.
They will continue to consume quite a bit of calories after you have stopped pedaling.
This, now, is a much larger figure--about 800 calories or so.
