Not to mention the fact that when we do not recover, the CO², we release it quan dmême and that statistically, it is proven, it is better to do sport for your little heart.
So the human machine may have a deplorable performance (although, I find that we do a lot of things in a day, with about 2 kcal!), I think that recovering energy would be a good thing.
I'm just going to testify:
- I do two or three times a week a session of about 30/35 minutes on my exercise bike (after heart attack); maximum power: 100 W, average power: 80 to 90 W
- to motivate myself, I often watch TV ...
- the bike that I have has a rather sophisticated electronic regulation of the power, via ... electromagnets which "brake" without friction an internal wheel; so not only does it not recover energy, but to control my power, it consumes some !!!
So, I consume for TV, I consume for my bike, and I pedal to be sweaty! Look for the error ... NB: for once, the Germans are not very green (it is German, my bike - by the way, it's the top, Siemens regulator, etc ... !!!).
