I fucking hate running, I'm still going to do it but I want to be biking most of the time

Yeah, less stress and impact on your joints. You do have to go further though on a bike but I find it much easier to do so. I also hate running

I'm not an expert, so I don't know how the compare as far as cardio is concerned. Biking is a lot lower impact for your knees though.

Usually on stationary I knock about 7 miles in 22 minutes. I'm hoping to get on a real bike this week and do about 20 at least

Biking is fun. The most I did was 40 miles on a bike ride once. I want to get back into it now that I moved back to NYC. Florida sucks for biking.

For cardio benefits?

I'd think as long as you work as hard biking and stay in the right heart rate area, it shouldn't be too much different

I got into biking because my knees are totally fucked from football and track. Pretty anecdotal, but as far just staying in shape it's just as good as running for me.

Yes I just want to be able to get some stamina. Get back in shape for the police academy which I should be running for but I can't stand running lmao

Same but it seems like you'd have to bike longer to get the same benefits, which is what has always turned me off from biking. Maybe I'm wrong though.

I'd rather bike 20-30 miles than run one mile

Try swimming as that is also a full body exercise like running.
