The way to get the maximum benefits from cycling is by using a high RPM, and pushing low gears. If you don't have a cadence sensor, then get one, you want to use about 100+ (around about 120RPM) if you can.
I don't want to have to repeat myself again, but I did put a fairly substantial post about this ages ago. Perhaps someone else can take over from here???...
