 Along with jogging and swimming, cycling is one of the best all-round forms of exercise. It can 
help to increase your strength and energy, giving you more efficient muscles and a stronger heart. But 
increasing your strength is not the only advantage of cycling. Because you’re not carrying the weight of 
your body on your feet, it’s a good form of exercise for people with painful feet or backs. However, with 
all forms of exercise it’s important to start slowly and build up gently. Doing too much too quickly can damage muscles that aren’t used to working. If you have any doubts about taking up cycling for health 
reasons, talk to your doctor and ask for his/her advice. 
 Ideally you should be cycling at least two or three times a week. For the exercise to be doing you 
good, you should get a little out of breath. Don’t worry that if you begin to lose your breath, it could be 
dangerous and there must be something wrong with your heart. This is simply not true; shortness of breath 
shows that the exercise is having the right effect. However, if you find you are in pain then you should 
stop and take a rest.
