Help Losing Weight

Exercise Bikes...

Do they work?

Wor lass (fuck off) just bought one. If i ate right, how long would i have to do on the bike for it to have a noticable effect. Ive put on shit loads of weight recently and im pushing 14 clem and im not that tall so basically im fat as fuck.

Ive got canny bad asthma anarl so i dont wanna go running. And theres no bike trails where i live so buying an actual bike is pointless.

Swimming and the gym is out the question on account of being at college from 9am to 4pm then straight to work until 10pm. Plus, im constantly skint.

Ive put on 3/4 stone since meeting me lass, and its become blatently obvious she thinks i look a mess, so really want to lose it.

Any help would be appreciated. Nee fat jokes either you cruel bastards.

depends how much graft you put in.
you would need to be doing 30 min plus a day getting a sweat on to notice a difference

whats more easy is to write down what you eat and it becomes obvious that the pastie which you scoffed was 600 calories takes you 45 mins to burn off on the bike wasnt worth bothering with

just burn more calories than you eat. sounds simple enough

Reeto, gonna start tomorrow. Does an exercis bike improve fitness? Ive got a charity footy match for college on 9th April so would doing say 30/45 mins a day on the bike get me fitter by then you reckon?

Your asking questiosn you already know the answer to mate, i think what your really looking for is a little inspiration and I doubt your gonna get it here

Before you start, weigh yourself. Eat healthy, do your bike, then wiegh your self next week.
You must be on a caloric deficit to lose wieght. If your body needs say 2000 cals a day to function (everyone is different) you eat exactly 2000cals, that day you will niether lose or gain wieght, have that extra slice of pizza and you plus 400 cals putting you at a gain. Dont eat it and do cardio minus 500 cals, your body will then use fat for energy.

Could go on for hours, good luck

Edit: Google reckons it does.
