Like hiking and running, cycling is a great activity that provides numerous physical benefits. When cycling, two pelvic bones called the ischial tuberosities absorb the rider’s weight and take pressure off the joints, helping to reduce pain and stiffness elsewhere in the body. Since cycling stimulates the heart and strengthens it, the activity is known as a buffer against cardiovascular issues, including heart attack and high blood pressure. Other than that, cycling is known to help with weight control. It not only improves metabolism generally but specifically aids in burning fat. Similarly, cycling is an aerobic workout, which triggers endorphins and makes riders feel good.
