Degenerate ones

just gonna leave this here 👀

Weight lifters can bicycle too, this is not a binary world.

I like biking for cardio, I suppose, but otherwise not my cup of tea

who knows maybe I'll come around in 10 years

Easy boys; teasing is all in brotherly fun. Let's not make it serious.

Long day at work, posted while angry.

cyclist quads are ridiculous

Why would a cyclist need to have that much upper body strength that he seems to have?

Why do foot sprinters have big arms? The cyclists probably have big arms because they grab the handlebars and wrench the heck out of them. Pull up on the handlebar as you push down on the pedal. You could see him torquing the stationary bike.

Having a strong upper body helps when running. Especially sprinting

Finally an independent agency testing bicycle helmets!

I just bought their top recommended helmet and hope I never put it to the test.

Involves cycling ^^^

Thankfully found some balance to the pozz

Any foodies here need to take up cycling. 2,200 calories burned in one ride.

sheesh

how fatigued does that make you?

Depends how hard I push. I can go at a walking pace equivalent, a jogging pace, a running pace, a sprinting pace. Strava will also calculate the training load based on heart rate and power meter to see how long of a recovery you need for the intensity you exerted.

I went decently hard on this ride, so more than 24 hours for full recovery, but no so hard that I need a day off of exercising.

I'm interested in seeing the math behind that

@Tanner - SC I want to get into cycling. I now live in a city and know nothing about good bike brands. Aside from obviously googling for resources on my own time, what would be a good starting point for getting into cycling seriously?

And by seriously I mean tracking my workouts like you do so I receive that data, a serious but hopefully affordable bike brand, and maybe an app for finding popular cycling routes.
