Yes, but only if you put in the same amount of energy riding it.worldgod said:
Doesn't what type of bike, be it stationary or road or MTB, or rowing machine for that matter. The equipments don't burn calories, it's the person who burns the calories subject to the amount of work being done on the machine. Stationary bikes may be safe to use at home, but heck, it's boring as hell. No better than a lab rat running on their treadmill.
I pedal on a (stationary) bike for one hour - I use 620 calories.
I pedal on my bike outdoors for an hour - I use between 800 - 900 calories.
Wind/gradient/body movement/effort differ between stationary and roadbike.
In my case, the roadbike makes me work harders.
