Getting Exercise On A Trike Bike

By David Reed


Everyone is aware of the importance of getting exercise if you want to lose weight or get fit. Running and jogging is not always good on your knees and for those that are not already in shape, this can be an impossibility. Riding a bike is a good way to avoid knee stress, but leaning forward over the front tire is not always something to look forward to. Lifting weights are fine if you want to build muscle but aren't designed to help you lose fat. Taking a trike bike for a ride is a great way to have the benefits of cardio without the awkward position of riding a bike.

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.

Having fun is a big part of continuing your exercise routine. Some people have the discipline to work through difficult or uncomfortable workouts. However, many people give up quickly if they find it too hard and begin to dread signing up for a gym membership. Finding a way to have fun while exercising will take your mind off of the work you are doing and allow you to just have fun. When you look forward to getting out and getting fit, you're more likely to stick with it.

Tricycles are much more stable than bicycles. Though we remember the excitement of getting the training wheels taken off our first bike, as an adult this poses a problem. Being humiliated by falling over or not being able to stop or start correctly is a big factor in why many adults won't get a bike. Having a three-wheeled vehicle eliminates all of these fears.

Tricycles are more comfortable. Ten-speed bikes are built with the handles in line with the seat. This puts you in a position where you are leaning forward at an extreme angle and often just looking at the ground as you ride. With the tricycle, you can sit more upright, which is better for people who are not in the best shape and can't lean forward on a bike. You won't be hunched over and you can look around to see the beautiful views as you ride.

Riding to work adds more exercise to your day. If you live close enough to ride to work, you will be safer on the tricycle. The frame is bigger and with three wheels you're more likely to be noticed. You also won't have to worry about struggling to start up without falling into the traffic next to you.

Tours are available for group fun. Since many of your friends probably already have bikes and tricycles, you can go on group tours. Some may be organized by tour operators at well known natural wonders, others you can organize on your own. Take them camping and make your own group as you head off to see the views that are offered.

Having fun is key to keeping a good exercise routine going. People will give up if they don't like heading to the gym. Instead, finding a good way to get exercise while having fun takes your mind off the work and makes it a pleasant experience.
