Is the calorie consumed by running for an hour the calorie consumed by cycling for an hour?
Riding for an hour is equivalent to running 1.5 hours.

Generally speaking, a person running for an hour will consume 500-800 calories, while riding for an hour will consume 600-800 calories, depending on the speed and weight of riding. Therefore, there is little difference in the calories consumed by the two at the same time, so you can choose the exercise mode according to your own preferences.

Precautions for riding:

1. When riding a bicycle, your upper body leans forward slightly, and your head should not lean forward too much. When pedaling, your waist should be slightly bent, your shoulders should be relaxed, your arms should be straight and your legs should be straight.

2. When girls ride bicycles, the handlebar position should be slightly higher than that of boys, which can keep the upper body straight, make the body focus on the ischium and reduce the burden on the arm. This posture is also conducive to smooth driving.

3. The seat should be soft and moderately high, so as to minimize the pressure on the hips.
