Most of us could benefit from taking more exercise, and thanks to constant reminders from government, the media, and of course the medical profession, most people are only too aware of this fact. Of course knowing that you should take more exercise is not the same thing as actually taking that exercise. Especially since it's also true that we tend to all leading increasingly busy and hectic lives, and it simply may not be very easy to fit more exercise into our schedule.
Of course, another common problem is simply maintaining your enthusiasm about improving your health through exercise. It's all too common to start out with great intentions for turning over a new leaf - but can you keep it up in the long run? For example, many people who join gyms are, initially at least, positively excited about the prospect of improving their health and fitness, and perhaps also losing weight, yet the statistics show that as many as three quarters of gym memberships go unused after the third month.
One of the reasons why cycling is such a great form of exercise is because unlike swimming, running or going to the gym, you don't need to find an extra slot in your daily schedule for it, but instead can integrate into your daily routine. Instead of driving your car or riding on the bus at every opportunity, why not hop on your bike? If you think about the amount of time that you spend sitting in traffic jams, cycling may even turn out to be a time saver!
