Drinking beer while riding stationary bike helps lose weight, and this is why.....
Alcohol makes the boring seem somewhat fun, so you exercise longer.....
Alcohol converts to sugar, so it gives your body a energy boost and helps you exercise longer.....
Thank me later, and drink responsibly. That is all. Cheers.

Beer can also make you smarter. After all, it made Budweiser 🤣15

But what happens after you lose your balance, fall, break something, and can’t exercise for several weeks?4

You can exercise. Just not the same as you have been. If you broke an ankle, try weights while sitting. Since this is a beer board, 12 oz curls are my favorite.
Talk to a trainer at a gym. They can help.3 -
Get one of these. Hands-free beer drinking, and a helmet in case you fall off.

If we’re lucky the fall will crack our jaw and we’ll have to get it wired shut. Yay! Enforced super calorie deficit. Lol.6 -
There is no truth in the rumour I picked my bike's frame size so that it would fit a wine bottle.
Shame I forgot the corkscrew.....

You have to drink responsibly. I like to drink one can every 30 minutes of exercise. I listen to music while riding and drinking so i take a 1 oz sip before each song starts. I can easily get a 90 min workout in and have a nice buzz after.2 -
Drinking beer during exercise wouldn't be my thing but hey, knock yourself out. Just a quick point of fact from your OP. Alcohol is fermented sugar. It does not turn back into sugar. It is handled by the liver as a toxin and the liver stops doing much of anything else until in metabolizes alcohol. Not sure why people think alcohol turns into sugar but it seems to be a common belief as I've seen it repeated here from time to time.9

Good to know. And here i thought the alcohol was converting back to sugar, which was in turn, converting to fat. So i guess its just empty calories? Thats even better!5

Well, depending upon what your drinking. For example, beer has some carbs and other micronutrients as does wine. Not sure about distilled beverages. But the alcohol is a substance that is processed separately and doesn't turn into anything else. While alcohol doesn't turn into fat, you don't burn any fat, or anything else, while the alcohol is being processed by the liver.
Lol at the disagrees to my earlier posts. Facts are facts.9 -

Hydration backpack with bite valve. Very efficient, compatible with most exercise modalities, holds a truly massive amount of Scotch.
You're welcome.8 -
Will this work with vodka?0
