Not necessarily true; distance for distance, yes, cycling is less taxing on the body, that's for sure. but other factors like cadence (RPM of your cranks), terrain, comes into play too.

i can cycle for say 10km, at a higher cadence and a lower gear ratio, and my output won't be lesser than a runner doing the same distance.

Less tiring when you are cycling the wheels are also doing the job, not just your body.

When you cycle upslope then you’ll feel the kick. It’s when you wished you were jogging instead w/o the bike.

cycling uses more leg muscles rather than stamina unlike jogging?

2cansam SG

when u jog, u will always sway your arms ( this is to maintain constant speed) ,by doing this you’re actually using energy also. With the energy your leg uses when jogging, it really drains u

Cycling is less intense bec you are using a machine to help you move. Generally, jogging is more intensive and burns more energy for each minute you jog than cycling, and bec of that, one can cycle for longer hours than jogging without tiring.

I remember reading somewhere that a man on a bicycle is one of the most efficient heat engines of all - the efficiency can be something like 75%. In other words, 75% of your effort gets translated into the motion of the bike.

In contrast, jogging is extremely inefficient - I should think that only 10% of your effort goes into motion. Much of the rest goes into speeding up the heart and warming up your body.

So for the same distance covered, you burn less energy through cycling.

when you cycle for long periods of time, your butt hurts. then the next day your legs and butt hurt. depending on the structure of the bike, your back and arms might hurt as well.

when you jog for a long time, you feel like dying. the next day, your arms and legs hurt. but at least your butt's safe.

at least, that's how i feel.
