Is biking a good workout?


I'm thinking about getting a bike from Wal Mart and when it start heating up some more go for a bike ride around town each day when I can. I assume its good for your legs.

Depends on how fast and far you ride. Try riding instead of driving whenever possible.

Wal Mart by car is about a good 10 minutes up the road, with a bike I can probably bike to wal Mart in 25 minutes maybe.

Biking can be a great workout, not just for your legs.

Be safe though, wear a helmet.

Yep,it's a good cardiovascular exercise n also covers quadriceps (front thigh muscles). Good for the blood circulation for lower extremities.


Now the cons- Big sessions of cardio workouts decreases testosterones. Cycling on a narrow seat for long hours heats up the scrotum. On the long run it does affect fertility.


Biggest regret- Arnie took away the chance to kill the predator.
