How much will I maximize my weight loss if I add a 1 hour walk to my 30 min stationary bike routine? I ride the stationary bike for 30 minutes every morning when I get up- I feel like I have reached a plateau- do you think it will up the weight loss if I begin having a 1 hour walk around my hilly neighborhood a few times a week?

Just to give more details (since someone on here had a rude answer about junk food) I have been following an extremely healthy diet of fruits, veggies, beans, whole grains and water only to drink. So I don%26#039;t think %26quot;junk food%26quot; is going to be an issue here at all.

Sure, it%26#039;s more calories burned. And you%26#039;re probably right about the plateau, so switching / adding exercise is a good way to break thru. Also the hills will add intensity - if your knees / ankles can handle it, try jogging up the hills to really get your heart rate and breathing maxed out.

Also, don%26#039;t neglect basic muscular strength - core work, yoga / pilates, pushups etc.

  • Go to Yahoo, and type in the words %26quot;Just Eat%26quot; and you wouldn%26#039;t even have to walk to lose weight Use this knowledge to lose weight, and to keep it off. Just Eat is written by Jeremiah Hensley
  • The equation also depends on how much more junk food you will be putting in your body.
  • Not that much, you don%26#039;t lose that much on a stationary bike or walking. I suggest DDR, running, and eating healthy.

  • yea like the last person said i played nothing but ddr for a couple months and lost like 40 pounds just go onto amazon/ebay and get ddr stuff like a ps2 cuz its the best console to do it on
  • it depends on how many calories you are intaking. You can do all this exercise, but if you eat 5000 calories a day..then you wont lose much.
    It also depends on your metabolism and your bodies ability to recooperate after a workout. If you experience muscle fatigue or muscle strain it may force you to stop working out for a bit... If youre healthy and in good shape, then the walk should be ok. Try mixing cardio with strength training!
