Most muscles of the human body are concentrated in the legs, and cycling is to keep the legs moving. In addition, when riding a bicycle, we will use our hands, wrists and back muscles, which is equivalent to full-body exercise, which can increase calorie consumption. For example, in the Tour de France, the most famous bicycle race in the world, an ordinary rider consumes 5000~8000kcal of calories every day.
When riding a bicycle on the road, you should also pay attention to other road signs, observe the state of motor vehicles and pedestrians around you, and have sharp enough eyes to notice the dangerous reasons such as empty bottles and potholes in front of the road.

When women ride bicycles, the handlebar position should be slightly higher than that of men, which can keep the upper body straight, make the body focus on the ischium and reduce the burden on the arm. This posture is also conducive to smooth driving.
