Gross metabolic efficiency is gonna be around ~25% so you're best off measuring kilojoules of work as an approximation of calorie burn, and then compare that to how many gallons of gas would be consumed when in a car, but you'd still probably wanna drink the gas
But that's because that fuel is used to do much, much more work. if you scale down the unit to, say, a scooter (50cc) it will last much longer. Most scoots have 1gal tanks and they can get over 100mi per tank.
That being said everyone will think you lost your license due to drunk driving so to prevent this you should replace alcohol in your life and simply drink gas.
Real ones will switch to drinking biofuels because they're better for the environment.
Ethanol is a good option.
Pro-tip: make sure it's not denatured and is purified—it's less dangerous for consumption that way.
I meeeeaaan, she lost that actual ton before you started biking her around and she’s still somehow fat. Someone had to say it. You shouldn’t apologize.
Plz dont im so srry. I bag ur 4givness. I hav sweet ethral fools cristal sord in d2. I wil giv it 2 u. My mom wil kil me if I get a nother virus. She mite blame my dad and devors him. Plz. I bag of u!
If you bike regularly, you actually don't spend more calories. You only see calorie burn uptick when first taking on new exercise, which falls off over time back to your usual normal calorie cost. Because of this, that calorie cost for a biker is calorie intake they'd already consume even if they didn't bike. It's essentially free, in contrast to the gas of the car which is always a cost.
There was a Kurzgesat video about this a couple weeks ago. Apparently if you don’t spend calories exercising/biking, your body will find other ways to burn it like increasing your immune system activity (which can have poor long-term effects). There’s an adjustment period when you do start exercising where energy is still spent on sedentary things and the actual exercise before the former is reduced to mostly match the latter.
I have also read that regular exercise can lead to an increase of base metabolic rate by ~5% though, which is like an extra 100 calories per day.
You should always doublecheck Kurzgesagt videos, btw.
They're not a good sole source due to being heavily simplified (they know this and often provide further reading (you probably also know this (just commenting anyway for general visibility (this should be considered good practice tbh (to be honest)))))
Yeah, I started taking Kurzgesagt videos with a grain of salt a while ago, hence the “apparently.” Their explanation just fit NoName’s assertion pretty well. Never bad to make the possibility of being wrong explicit though!
