Flat Incline
Do you burn more calories riding a bicycle at a steady incline than flat surface?
I have started riding my bicycle 5 miles per day now. I know this isn’t much but I weigh 270lbs and this is quite a big deal for me. 2.5 miles of this ride is a steady incline and is EXTREMELY tough for me. Do I burn more calories when I am going up this steady incline? Thanks in advance!
Your heart rate is your guide.
If your heart maintains a higher rate during the incline, then you can anticipate increased caloric consumption. But that doesn’t explain much…
If your heart rate is in a moderate-high, aerobic zone (as opposed to an easy or extreme [anaerobic] zone) during the ride, that caloric consumption will be focused on buring body fat. For this reason, you can efficiently and comfortably burn body fat on the flat sections of your ride by maintaining your heart rate in the desired (aerobic) zone. You don’t have to beat yourself up on the hills to Lose Weight.
And if weight loss IS your goal, you should consider the purchase of a heart rate monitor. It doesn’t have to be the fanciest, most expensive model available. A basic, inexpensive unit will still provide readings for average HR, peak HR, and current HR. Many will also provide an estimate of calories burned.
Knowing what your heart is doing during your rides will help you achieve a more productive workout.
