Biking: to Raise MetabolismExercise to Raise Metabolic RateOne way to raise the body's metabolism (the rate at which it burns calories at rest), is to perform a regular exercise routine - such as biking. Biking: Faster MetabolismThe benefits of a faster metabolism include faster weight reduction and fat loss. It also helps maintain a healthy weight level in middle age. In addition, a regular bike workout helps maintain normal blood glucose levels, as well as healthy cholesterol and blood pressure. Biking: Calorie-BurningAbout 45 minutes of biking burns about 360 calories. In one year, this physical exercise workout uses up a total of 131,400 calories - about 38 pounds of body weight. Biking and DietAs well as taking regular bike exercise, try to follow a healthy eating plan. All weight control studies show that a nutritious calorie-controlled diet is essential for long term weight control. |
