Bike Mountain
Is riding a mountain bike on the street a better workout than a road bike?

A road bike is more fun and fast on the street, but you do get a better workout with a mountain bike.

Agree?

A road bike can feel like a leisure stroll while on a mountain, you use more muscle.

Actually it’s all about time and effort, you will put the same amount of effort on either bike just on the road bike you’ll be going faster. For the same time and effort you will burn the same calories. The reason for the leisurely road bike feel is that you have reached the speed you are comfortable with and you have to work harder on the Mtn bike for the same speed.

Edit: For those thumb downers, from a work out prospective, when you work out you burn X number of calories, this can be directly related to watts. Watts = effort x time , wattage is a unit of energy, calories is a unit of energy. Simply put it doesn’t matter one bit if you are on a mtn or road bike, 200 watts is 200 watts!

What weighs more a ton of feathers or 2000lbs of steel?
