It sure is easy to put on extra weight during the holidays. It is easy to get used to all the food. The colder months force us to stay indoors so we hardly get any exercise. First there is Halloween in October. Then in November is Thanksgiving. In December is Christmas. In January is New Years. Just as we start to think about dieting, in rolls Valentines Day and Easter. There are so many fattening holidays, one after the other. Suddenly, here we are. We look terrible in our clothes and we just want to stay inside and eat. Wake up!

It has finally come time to keep that mouth closed except to eat vegetables and drink water. Oh, and buying mountain bike. This is the perfect solution. You do have other choices. You can either walk for twice as long or you can run. Since not many people can run easily, and walking just takes too darn long, biking becomes the best option.

One hour of moderate cycling will burn about six hundred calories. If you bicycle at about 12 mph, you can burn twice that. While running burns twice as much as cycling, it is very hard. Running for more than a minute is difficult for most people. Cycling is the perfect medium.

The more calories you burn, the more weight you lose. There are about 3600 calories in a pound of fat. If you feel too overweight and are embarrassed to be seen sweating in exercise clothes, go out in the evening. Just go. It will not be long before you look great. But you have to start. Wear black clothes and get a black helmet before you go out.

There are only positive things about riding. It is a safe exercise. It allows you to commute. You save money on gas. You help the environment. You get extra endorphins. You can easily and comfortable lose two pounds a week. If you want to help your diet even more, try using a protein shake that you can blend with hand mixers.

The trick is to let everyone know about your regime and do not let anyone alter that. Shoot for one hour of exercise every single day. That way, if fall short for some reason, you will be sure to get in a good amount of exercise. Experts say to exercise for at least 30 minutes a day, three times a week. That is the minimum and hardly enough.

If you bike ride for one hour six days a week without eating less, you can lose exactly one pound. Can you dedicate yourself to one hour a day, six days a week? By the way, if you can shave off an additional 600 calories a day, you can lose two pounds a week. Riding is a very enjoyable and easy way to lose weight.
