Having Fun On A Trike Bike

By David Reed


Getting exercise is a great way to lose weight and get fit. There are many benefits to jumping on a bike and taking a ride. Your knees won't have to endure the stress of running or jogging. Other forms of exercise like working out in a gym are typically for building muscle and the cardio workouts are not as fun. Riding a trike bike is a great way to go for a ride without worrying about falling off if you're not used to the coordination a two-wheeled bike requires.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Sticking to your exercise plan is important to get in shape. If you don't enjoy it, you're likely to give up. Finding a way to have fun while doing exercises will do the work without dread or stress.
