Cycling or Running: Which One Is Better for You?
Also consider…
…your current health condition. In fact, this is crucial for choosing the right sports. If you’re suffering from a chronic illness, none of these options may be beneficial at all!
Generally, cycling is indeed gentler on your body given that your joints and bones aren’t shook at all. However, long-term, intense cycling sessions may take a toll on your lower back due to the position. The best advice is to talk to your doctor or a fitness specialist who can evaluate your condition and recommend the right exercise for your needs.
PS: Don’t forget to have some fun while exercising too! If you can join a group or meet with friends for either of these activities, do so – your soul needs training too.
