Default Weight Loss and Heart rate

"Kazu" wrote in message

I wanted to ask this newsgroup a question about Weight Loss, and
Heart Rate.

What is more beneficial, to ride long rides of say 50 to 80 kms, and
keep between my recommended training zone of 65% to 85% of my maximum
heart rate, or go faster and stay above 85% for a while, sometimes
peaking to 95%.


This has been discussed before. The so-called fat-burning zone is bull****.
You'll burn more calories by working harder for longer and it's as simple as
that.

See

Is this more beneficial if I work harder, or is it dangerous, what
should I do to acheive good weight loss ?


Eat less. Exercise more. Repeat.
