			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>So I shall just admit it. I&#8217;m fat. I need to bike. But the cold weather doesn&#8217;t help. It gets really, really chilling yesterday and I wasn&#8217;t really in the mood to complete the daily 20-odd miles ride I&#8217;ve done almost everyday. At the end I decided to go to the gym for the first time in years. And guess which machines did I spend the most time on? You&#8217;ve got it, the bike trainer!</p>
<p>You know what? The bike trainer is a lot harder than it looks. At first I couldn&#8217;t even reach 80 cadence easily. After three to four minutes of trying and adjusting the seats, I realized that the bike trainer beside mine has toeclips (well, it comes close to a toeclips, while it is not really one). So I switched. And it does help! I was maintaining 110-120 cadence for the next one hour on a fatburn program. Burned 900+ calories with average heartrate of 145. Not too shabby huh?</p>
<p>Well, decided that I should be doing more of this. The gym is more controlled, so it&#8217;s probably better for losing weight. It gets very boring though. But it can&#8217;t be helped, can it?</p>
<p>As an aside, I&#8217;ve been thinking of redesigning the basic design of this blog. You know, I really like doing simple web design, though, admittedly, I suck at it. I&#8217;ll try to come up with one that utilizes as little images as possible. Yes. That&#8217;s a resolution then. If you see this blog in a half-baked stage, it&#8217;s probably me being lazy. ;)</p>
