Many people know that a sedentary lifestyle can speed up the aging process. But perhaps not many are aware that cycling can slow down the aging process and boost immunity, keeping older adults healthy and strong.
A recent study on amateur cyclists aged 55 to 79 found that they have remained healthy, free from the harmful effects of a sedentary lifestyle. They did not show muscle loss found in adults their age. The men were able to get as much oxygen as they can. The women showed peak performance while cycling and retained muscle mass.
Here are other great reasons why cycling is good for you.
So what are you waiting for? Get that long-forgotten bike at the back of the garage and pedal away. Better yet, bring family and friends along. You not only catch up with people who matter most to you. You also do yourself a big favor. Read Longevity.news for more news on strategies for healthy living.
