Cycling and its benefits.

Summer is a time of change. During this time, I want to become more beautiful, better, and start doing activities that are beneficial for my own health. You can take daily walks in the fresh air. Or you can choose a bicycle as a trainer.

Cycling will help you maintain a healthy figure while traveling long distances. Cycling is a great workout for the heart. In just half an hour you can ride a bike to the park or out of town.

On a bike ride, a vacationer is constantly surrounded by birdsong, butterflies flying, and accompanied by a light and fresh breeze. If you want to lose extra pounds while cycling, you need to follow certain rules:

It is important not to forget to take water with you while riding; it is good if you have a special flask with fasteners on the bicycle frame. If not, taking a plastic bottle with you will be fine.

When traveling on wheels, have something in stock to repair these wheels - a spare tube or a set of patches, it is good to supplement them with a portable set of tools.

While traveling you need to be prepared for weather changes. Don't forget to bring a light waterproof jacket with you. Perhaps, for all of the above, it is better to buy a bike bag for the trunk or a small bike backpack to capture everything you need.

You need to constantly monitor your heart rate while cycling. To lose excess weight, your heart rate while riding should be up to 150 beats per minute. It is advisable to measure your pulse three times - before starting the ride, while riding and at the end of the bike ride. After a short time, it will be necessary to measure your pulse on the go, so you need to have a wristwatch, which should be worn so that the dial is always in front of your eyes.

The most important rule of cycling is its regularity and duration. It is necessary to go for bicycle rides every day - then they will have a significant effect. To effectively lose weight, you need to exercise for up to two hours a day. But, if you haven’t had to ride a bike or ride at least from time to time since childhood, then you should start small. In the first few days, a 15-minute bike ride a day is enough. Over time, walking time should be increased to five to ten minutes daily.

For efficient cycling, you should choose a comfortable bike. Usually they choose a mountain bike for walking. It is necessary to carefully consider the frame before purchasing. If one tube smoothly transitions into another tube, then the bike is of high quality. You should buy a bike with a closed frame because it is more reliable. You need to be very careful when choosing wheels. Large wheels are known to develop good speed with a smooth ride. If you buy narrow wheels, you won’t get that speed. But that's not the main thing. It's good for the whole family to go on bike rides. Everyone will benefit from such a walk - both adults and children.
