To calculate the Bicycle Weight Loss (BWL):
BWL=CB−CE3500
Where:
Bicycle Weight Loss refers to the amount of weight lost as a result of burning more calories than consumed while biking. This metric helps individuals track their progress towards weight loss goals by accounting for the calories burned during biking and subtracting the calories consumed. One pound of weight loss is approximately equivalent to a deficit of 3,500 calories.
Let's assume the following values:
Using the formula:
Step 1: Calculate the calorie deficit:
CB−CE=5000−2000=3000 cals
Step 2: Divide by 3,500:
BWL=30003500≈0.86 lbs
The Bicycle Weight Loss is approximately 0.86 lbs.
Let's assume the following values:
Using the formula:
Step 1: Calculate the calorie deficit:
CB−CE=8000−4500=3500 cals
Step 2: Divide by 3,500:
BWL=35003500=1 lbs
The Bicycle Weight Loss is 1 lb.
