The Cycling Lifestyle

Riding a bike is one of the most efficient ways to combine regular exercise with your daily routine. Once you get comfortable on a bike you can start using it to ride to the store, to work, to school, and so many other places! Once you learn how to ride you won't forget it. This also makes cycling very good for the environment.

Cycling is mainly an aerobic activity, meaning that your heart and lungs both get a workout. It is a healthy, low-impact activity that releases endorphins into your body.  These endorphins help you to relieve stress and make your body feel positive. With time, this daily activity will improve your overall fitness level. 

People of all ages can participate in cycling since a ride can be altered in intensity. It really is a good workout. It will increase your stamina and develop your major muscle groups. More benefits include increased flexibility, improved joint mobility, better posture, and improved balance and coordination. 

You can also make cycling fun! You don't need to be stuck indoors. You can ride new trails and feel the wind as you pedal. It's also likely that you will make really good friends along the way. It makes sense right? Like-minded individuals with an interest in the same thing have a connection already. You can go on rides together, carpool to training sessions and support each other at competitions. ​
