How many calories do you burn riding a bike?

Philipp Buchmann
20.04.2023

Riding a bike is not only an environmentally friendly way to get around, but also a great way to burn calories and stay fit. But how many calories do you actually burn while cycling?

The calories burned while riding a bike depends on a number of factors, including the rider's weight, speed, distance, and terrain. However, a rough estimate is that at a speed of 16-19 mph, you burn between 300 and 500 calories per hour. If you ride faster or on rough terrain, the calorie burn can be even higher.

An important factor in calorie burn while cycling is also one's weight. Heavier people generally burn more calories than lighter people because they need more energy to move. For example, a person weighing 70 kg burns about 360 calories during an hour of cycling at a speed of 16-19 km/h, while a person weighing 90 kg burns about 460 calories.

However, it is important to note that calorie consumption while cycling is only a rough estimate and depends on many factors. It can also lead to eating more after cycling to make up for the calories burned. Still, cycling is a great way to stay fit and get around in an environmentally friendly way.

So, grab your bike and enjoy a nice ride - not only for the calories burned, but also for the well-being and fun!
