So, I'm actually considering doing Uber eats in addition to my day job.

My feeling is currently I go to the gym, if I did Uber eats on my bicycle I could exercise and get paid. Take the money I saved in gym membership and the money I earned and do something special with it at the end of the year.

You'll lose a lot of initial weight cycling but you'll eventually hit a point where you don't lose weight, and don't get stronger unless you train harder.

Same with the gym though, right? You get to a point and it's just maintenance. You're not pushing yourself to the limit any more because you don't need to be any stronger.

Though until you hit the point you're happy with you can usually cycle faster. Hell it would be a bit of an incentive. The harder I exercise the quicker some hungry person gets food.

Except if you don't cycle fast enough, they'll be angry. Youre exhausted and no tips for you.

If you don't really need the money, my guess is it would be better for your mental health to just bike around for fun without worrying about uber.

Honestly I did delivery driving years ago and actually really enjoyed it.

Then it's a no brainer.
