I am enthusiastic/motivated about going back to my college weight, but I do not think cycling alone is gonna do it, and I intend to work out at the gym 4x/week doing 20-30 minutes cardio on the stair climber and some strength training also.
very similar to my goal Jed, tryin to get to the 180's or 190's this season. hence my purchase of a trainer to get an early start this year, diet getting back in check after the holidays (i always splurge during that time), trainer time will help get my wind/legs back after a season ending foot injury last year (not cycling related)
