Bicycling
Bicycling is a popular activity -- especially in the summer -- and it's gaining popularity. It's a great, low-impact, aerobic exercise that can be just as effective as running, without the knee pain. A 135-pound woman who bikes 6 miles in a half hour burns 242 calories in a half hour, add another mile to that and you'll burn 311 calories in a half hour!
Going for a Smooth Ride
Do you love cycling, but find yourself sore after exercise a ride? It's a common complaint from regular cyclists. Take heart, little changes can make all the difference.
