great exercise that does not pound feet and legs, covers large distance and with rolling terrain get a terrific leg workout. If you clip into pedals or use feet straps can work on pulling up and pushing down with legs and use calves by rolling feet as you go through the down stroke. On hills stand up to work other leg muscles. I love it.
Bicycling is awesome if you are overweight and don't want to stress your joints too much with more of your typical cardio moves. While your body is designed to jump, run and move it might not do so too efficiently with too much excess weight. Bicycling can be a great workout for anyone because the amount of intensity is easily controlled to meet your level of fitness! It's also awesome to be outside enjoying the fresh air! Or the smoldering heat, whatever you prefer :)
Not as good as running if you ask me. But still a great workout.
