I exercise by riding my bike along the ocean, try to keep it going for 20 minutes or so, no coasting. just?

riding. now i know that using the larger muscles in the legs are much better than just lifting weights. those of you that daily exercise, is 20 minutes of aerobic exercise enough? thats 20 minutes minimum, at times it can go almost an hour.

2 hours????? you gotta be kidding!!!! i will shrink down to nothing!! i dont have time for THAT much exercise!!

Depending on how long you have been riding your bike, at least 6 months, you are now ready for a longer trip. Say an hour for about a year then change some aspect about your riding, sprints, up hill only, just something. You are on a good start. The body needs change to continue to adapt. This will be good for a diabetic.

When that gets boring try walking steps until you get used to than work faster or harder. Go the idea. Exercise is the best none medication activity you can do to control blood glucose levels.

Best Wishes.

Enough? Probably not. Depends on what you're trying to accomplish. I exercise for at least two hours a day. My goal is to stay off the diabetes medication. If that's your goal, then 20 minutes may not be enough.

well is this bike a motorcycle???

Find a local bike shop. Go in and tell them about how much you want to spend and where you'll be doing most of your riding. They should be able to help you. And make sure it fits.
