Th reason

The reason I only doing an hour is because I am in the Coast Guard and I am stationed on a ship that is currently out to sea for a few months.
I brought my bike with me and my trainer so its all set up. (Its not easy riding in 15 ft seas but it makes it different)
Because we are working 24/7 at sea my free time is normally limited and I get about 1 hour in the morning and 1 hour in the evening to work out. I am overweight and the CG says I need to loose about 20lbs. So that is why I am asking what is better for weight loss.
My coach for the training ride has given me a 1 hour regiment that is kicking my butt right now so i dont think only riding for 1 hour is really going to impeed on anything.
I have always heard that morning is better for working out cause it burns your calories all day.
But somone recently told me that night workouts are good to because it burns the calories that you ate throughout the day, and makes you snack less at night.
