Where you overweight or average in the first place? Things like that.
Did you stop working out because you worked out bicycling to work?
I go to a gym right now and Im just wondering if I could let go of my membership at the gym? I mainly do cardio when I go anyways. Or when you commute are you kind of on a lackadaisical leisurely ride?
Im about 6 miles away from work so I'd be doing 60 mi/week.
I dropped about 35 lbs riding (not because of commuting) last year and also because of dieting... I am in the same boat as you... I am thinking about dropping the gym membership because I am tired of weight training (I did that off and on for about 20 years...) and I don't like stationary machines (boooorrrrring).
I think that once I am in the groove commuting that I will drop the gym and continue to do it during the winter...
