Benefits Of An Adult Tricycle

By Nancy Scott


There are many reasons to get out and enjoy the summer weather. The nice thing about that is that you can get exercise while having fun with friends and family. One way is going for rides on bikes and trikes. Unfortunately, many adults have given up riding bikes for various reasons and have a bit of anxiety when it comes to starting the practice up again. The good news is that the adult tricycle has come back in style. These actually date back to before the two-wheeled version. Though they're not built for speed, they provide stability, good exercise, and fun for those riding them.

Getting fit is a summer goal for many people. The excuses are gone when it comes to finding ways to get out of exercising. So, with this new spirit of desire to get fit, it is time to get busy. The summer offers many opportunities to do so. You can play sports, join outdoor fitness clubs, or go for a ride. These are all valid and fun ways to get fit. For many, going for a ride is the best option.

If you don't like what you're doing, you'll probably quit. There is no way a person will continue doing something that is painful that they despise. If a workout is something you dread, you're going to quit. That's just a fact. This means you must find something you enjoy in order to continue to work on getting fit. Riding bikes and trikes is something that will provide great exercise without the work part of the workout. You can do it by yourself or in a group that provides encouragement. Some whole families will do this type of event together. It's fun and no one realizes they are actually getting in shape.

Intimidation stops people in their tracks. Being afraid of riding a bike stops many adults from trying it as a fun exercise. They're afraid they'll forget how to do it, or that they'll be humiliated by falling over in front of friends. Riding a trike eliminates these fears and makes it much easier to have the same kind of fun. With three wheels, you are stable and won't fall over. You can even keep your feet on the pedals when you come to a stop, making it much easier to coordinate than a two-wheel bike.

You should be comfortable when you ride. Ten-speeds are made for speed and require the rider to hunch over for maximum effect. That's not a very comfortable position for most people who just want to get out for a ride. Instead, the tricycle offers two options that both keep you from being hunched over. You'll be more comfortable and being able to look around while you ride.

There are two basic styles. The first is a completely upright version. On this one, you sit high on the seat, which is similar to most bike seats, and the pedals are directly below you. For the recumbent style, you have a bucket seat, sit lower to the ground, and the pedals are in front of you. They're a bit harder to get on at first, but once you get used to it, you can ride for miles with little effort because of the comfort.

Touring with a group provides a goal. There are many tours available for those that want to enjoy a scenic route while riding. You can often find or create your own route, but joining a group tour gives you additional benefits. You are in a group of peers and will be encouraged. You will also have a guide that will stop the group at specific points of interest that you might otherwise miss.

Enjoying your exercise will make it much easier to do. There are benefits to each different type of exercise. Cardio exercise is great for the heart and losing weight. By riding in a group or with your friends and family, you can enjoy the exercise and get fit while doing so.
