My friend told me one of the best ways to lose that stomach fat is to bike everyday. Now I want to go biking everyday but is there a way to make use of the exercise being efficient? hard biking, moderate, mix, more or less than 60 min? 30 min?

I would suggest a mix of styles as the body will get used to one way after a prolonged period of time. t -------------- I am training for birthdays. Be here. Live. Love. Hope. Now. Faith. Believe.
