Hi,
I have just started using my mountain bike on a turbo trainer and am building my fitness up.
At present I am doing fairly short sessions daily of 10 miles in about 31 mins at a cadence of around 90 measured using a Wahoo sensor and phone app.
The Wahoo doesn't calculate calories but typing the numbers into Map My Ride gives a calorific value of 710 which sounds a little high.
Could anyone advise if that sounds reasonable. I am 42, 14st 12 lbs and 6'3".
Also is this level of cadence and speed appropriate for fitness/weight loss or do I need to step it up a bit?
