Hello all,
new to posting on these forums but I'll state my situation as good as possible. Currently I'm 18 years old and 2 years ago I weighed 101,7 kilo, I think that's around 220 lbs and I finally started doing something about it. First I used a crosstrainer we had collecting dust on our attic but it broke down a few months later, I tried my best with just eating healthier till the weater got better. I started cycling then, this was spring-summer of 2012 and when the weather went crap again I was happy with my weight, I was 75 kilo or about 165 lbs. But I couldn't cycle anymore as the weather was crap all the time and later I started make excuses and now it's summer again but I still haven't cycled besides going to school and all. I weigh 84 or so kilo now, so like 180 lbs. I really wanna start losing weight again and get a better condition as I'm going to university in the end of august but I've been wondering a few things, and I finally get to the point sorry for that story:
I liked cycling but everyone is saying running is better, is that true? Besides just knowing what'd be better for losing weight/getting condition I wanna know as my bike is not in a state to really cycle intensively with so I'll either buy shoes or a bike.
and second, what should I do when the weather will get worse again? I live in the Netherlands so it rains.... a...lot....
thanks in advance and again, sorry for that story, I just want you to have the background story.
