Cycling is the best cardio on the planet is you want to get mega fit. You can ride to work, ride to school, ride to the shops, ride to dates, ride to the post office or just ride for the sake of riding.
No other sport can provide the conditioning like cycling can. Get an entry level road bike from Giant, Specialized, Cannondale or Trek.
Buy it from a shop that has a good rep for bike fit. Bike fit is VITAL!! Make sure you get the shop to give you a bike fit before you leave the store. Mark all your measurements with a white out pen ie seat height, saddle angle/fore/aft, cleat position, handlebar angle etc.
This way if anything slips you have a reference point to go back too.
If you want a bike that will last a decade and be inspiring to ride, get something with at least a shimano 105 level groupset. Good products allow for good fitness. Good fitness allows for a slim toned physique.
Get mountain bike shoes with clip in pedals. Road shoes are very hard to walk around in. I use mountain bike shoes. The shimano A530 is a good starting pedal as is the shimano T780. Check out my video 'the truth about cycling shoes'. You don't need clip in shoes at the start but you will need them eventually if higher fitness levels aka fitter looking body is desired.
Drink enough water so you are hitting the bushes every 2 hours. Your mates might call you 'walnut bladder' but your recovery will be peak and so will your blood volume.
Next step:
Get a Stages Cycling power meter and ride to wattage. Start at 80rpm.
You need to measure your wattage if you want to avoid blowing up.
You need to measure your wattage if you want to go long.
You need to measure wattage if you want to finish strong.
You need to measure wattage if you want to beat your mates or lessen the gap they put on you.
You need to measure wattage if you want to PR on Strava.
RIDE TO WATTAGE! :)
1-3w/kg for recovery/easy riding.
4-7w/kg if you want to put some sting in your mates legs or your own.
