Cycling plays multiple roles in our quest to live longer, healthier lives. Both indoor and outdoor riding builds cardiovascular health, strengthens the lower body, and protects joints. In our latest Move for Life episode, Peter Bowes is joined by Ageless Workout fitness experts Nate Wilkins and Shebah Carfagna to explore the pros and some of the cons of getting on your bike. They examine the trade-offs between low-impact spinning and higher-intensity classes and why controlling resistance and cadence matters; the benefits of being outdoors - exposure to the elements, vitamin D, varied terrain - while stressing safety and proper bike fit. Prostate-related pressure from prolonged seated riding is also examined, along with the importance of saddle design, and when to stand to reduce risk. You should consult your healthcare providers before starting or modifying cycling routines. ----- This podcast is supported by affiliate arrangements with a select number of companies.
