Cycling tips: cycling outdoors and healthy diets

1. After exercise, feeling warm and sweating a little is a sign that your body is burning fat.

After exercise, feeling warm and sweating a little is a sign that your body is burning fat. (One also sweats when feeling nervous and shy, so not all the sweat and fever is related to fat-burning.)

2. Do not eat 2 hours before your bed time.

Usually, 2 hours after meal, your energy (calories) is supplied by carbohydrate in food. 3 hours after meal, your energy (calories) is provided by fat stored in food and glycogen stored in liver and muscle. Therefore, carbohydrate and fat which is absorbed from breakfast and lunch is the main energy resource for after-meal activities. Because one gets little exercise after dinner, he should avoid over-absorbing, or he will gain weight for this reason. It’s hard to burn fat, so don’t eat 2 hours before bed time to avoid the storage of carbohydrate transferring into fat. One needs energy (calories) supplement every per hour or every 30 kilometers. Usually, cycle races are 100-kilometers’ or over 2-hours’ ridings. Therefore, energy supplement is essential at midway, or one may shudder from head to foot. Basically, road racer needs energy supplement at least every 30 kilometers. (Racer’s average speed is at least 30 kilometers per hour, so energy supplement is needed at least every per hour) As for mountain bikers, they need supplement at least every per hour. Because the calorie consumption of mountain cycling is different from the road cycling’s, that’s why we can’t measure by kilometers. These are the reason why one will feel dizzy and sick after 3-hours

3. While cycling, the best food for energy supplement is banana.

Though it is not the favorate food of natives (who think banana isn’t helpful for bone-growing and stomach), it is the commonest energy supplement during cycling activities. The reasons are as follows:

conveniently) Convenient to eat. (you can peel it without using knives or forks) Easy to go through your throat. (you can swallow it)
