Gotcha. While I know that motorcycling isn't traditional exercise, it beats the hell out of me. I've got a comfortable bike that fits me well, but still any trip over 3-4 hours still starts pushing me. When I did Ohio to Boston in April, it physically decimated me with the wind, distance, cold and rain.
- Mizza 14y agoI've never been on a motorcycle (I like my skin where it is) - what kind of exercise it? There is a substantial difference between resistance and aerobic exercise - I find it's good to have both, and that they both compliment each other. Stronger leg muscles mean higher jumps and a faster stride, and aerobic training means better use of oxygen, so more reps, etc etc etc.
- tibbon 14y agoI'd most compare it to yoga I suppose. You're in a weird position, its really hard on your wrists as you're putting a good bit of weight and pressure on them. Lots of precise muscle control, as small movements of your head even can direct your motion. You're being hit constantly with wind, and your muscles tense up a lot. Also, its very hot (or sometimes very cold) frequently. Not 'exercise' as much as abuse and strain.
- kaybe 14y agoAre you doing this regularly?
- tibbon 14y agoOnce a month or two, depending on season.
