Having Fun On A Trike Bike

Medical professionals constantly push the idea that exercise is an important part of getting in good shape. The problem is, there are so many options that make exercise into work. Finding a way to get the type of exercise you need and still enjoy it is key to sticking with it. Working out by lifting weights builds muscle but doesn't reduce fat. Jogging, running, and even riding a bike may not be an option for people who are more out of shape because of the stress it can cause. Having a trike bike can eliminate the issues and provide a great way to have fun while getting in shape.

Going for a ride helps you get fit. There is no doubt that exercise is good for you. But, the form of exercise you choose will have different types of benefits. Lifting weights build muscle. Jogging and running are great cardio but not always an option if you have knee problems or are not in good enough shape to endure. If you're worn out you're not having fun. On a tricycle, you can have fun because you are not stressing your knees, you are not leaning forward over the front tire, and you can just enjoy the ride while watching the scenery.

Dread is the number one reason people give up on gym memberships. They simply get tired of the work part of the workout. Running on a treadmill isn't as fun as being out with a pet or friends and family. Since so many people already have bikes, getting one that fits your needs will make it easier to join them in a group outing. Having fun will take your thoughts off the actual work you're doing.

Stability is a reason adults stop riding bikes. If it has been years since you've ridden a bike, you may be afraid that you've forgotten. The coordination that it takes to start and stop without falling over is enough to keep many adults from trying. With three wheels, you don't have to worry about that. You can put both feet on the pedals and start and stop without having to worry about the extra effort to avoid being humiliated.

Trikes are more comfortable. The speed bikes that many riders get are literally built for speed. They are designed for the rider to be hunched over as close to the frame of the bike as possible. For someone who is not in shape, this is not a very comfortable position. Trikes allow you to sit more upright and enjoy the ride. You can look around, not worry about your speed, and not hurt your back by being hunched over.

Getting to work will be much easier. Those that like to exercise by riding their bike on the way to work usually love it. However, the bike is a much smaller frame and puts them at risk. Having the three wheels makes the frame bigger and more noticeable. Being on a stable vehicle also avoids the risk of falling into traffic at a stop or when you start up when the light turns green. You can also look around your area more easily.

Getting friends and family together to go on a tour is a lot of fun. Most people have bikes or can get one. If you are away on vacation there are many places to rent them. Taking a tour with people you love adds to the vacation and is exercise at the same time.

You have to have fun if you want to keep up with the exercise. There are some really disciplined people that can charge into the workout without dread. Most are not that way. Making exercise fun is a great way to make it so you look forward to it.
