Exercise on BMX/Mountain Bikes?

Looking for some info on what's the best or advice on the differences between BMXs and Mountain bikes.

I own a mountain bike but as a kid, I loved my one-gear bike which I found I was the one doing the most workout going uphills, whereas my friends had mountain bikes and had ease getting up huge hills. And generally I liked the feel of being always in one gear going fast and doing jumps.

Anyway, I know this defeats the purpose of a mountain bike, but the majority of the time I'm always on the mid-highest gear - lower RPM on flats and hills as I love working the muscles.

Would you get as much workout on a BMX compared to a Mountain Bike or really makes no difference?
