It reduces stress
Stress hurts you more than you can imagine. It can lead to weight gain, increased blood LDL cholesterol and triglyceride levels, asthma, diabetes, digestive problems, premature aging, anxiety, headaches, high blood pressure, depression, cardiovascular disease and Alzheimer’s disease. Cycling, on the other hand, can help reduce your stress by keeping you away from the problems that plague your mind.
facilitates childbirth
Women who cycle for at least 30-45 minutes each day tend to have fewer complications during childbirth. Cycling improves bone and muscle strength, posture, flexibility and endurance, and helps build back muscles. Therefore, cycling is highly recommended if you want to avoid any complications during childbirth. However, be sure to consult your doctor before starting any exercise practice during pregnancy.
