 |
|
| I have debating on whether or not to purchase a bicycle and riding it for additional exercise. I am unsure of the exact health benefits of riding a bike. What prompted my interest in bike riding is that I used to drive past a really large man everyday and then I stopped taking the same route that he cycled on for a while and when I returned to the route I noticed that the guy was thin. I am not sure if it is a direct result of his cycling, but it did spark my interest in cycling. |

| Stronger leg muscles is what you would get from bike riding. That man must have done other exercise such as jogging/running besides bike riding to lose weight. |

| It's a good cardio workout and can burn a lot of calories if it is done consistently. It is a great exercise for the legs. |

| cycling is not only a decent exercise but can save you money, instead of going to the shop by car you could cycle there instead and save a few on petrolbut cycling like any cardio vascular activity will improve the condition of your lungs, heart and help you control your weight |
