Another "duh" study

Everyone knows that exercise is a necessity to living a healthy lifestyle.  Exercise burns calories, which in turn (when combined with healthy eating) helps you lose weight.

It should then, be no surprise to you, that it was recently discovered in a study performed at the Harvard School of Public Health, that (hold onto your hats!):

Biking can lead to weight loss!!

** GASP ** (I warned you that it was exciting news!!)

Biking is a family friendly form of exercise that does not require exceptional skills and can be done by almost anyone. Riding a bike is a favorite summertime activity, especially when families use one of the many paved  or off road biking trails readily found around the city/desert.

The new study suggests that biking even a short amount of time every day can help people lose weight. In the study by the Harvard School of Public Health, adult women aged 25 to 42 were followed for 16 years. The women who biked even as little as 5 minutes each day gained less weight than women who didn't bike. The more minutes per day a woman biked, the less weight she gained over the course of the study.

The study authors also found that other forms of brisk exercise such as walking faster than three miles per hour for 30 minutes daily also helped to prevent weight gain in women.

So, there you have it.  It took Harvard School 16 years to conclude what I've been telling you all along...

Exercise is good!

Until Tomorrow!
Keep healthy, keep safe and keep going!

Have an awesome day!
