Interval cycling exercises are a great way to improve muscle endurance and especially for the leg muscles. It is a very popular cycling exercise among both short and long distance runners. In ‘interval riding' you have to paddle effortlessly for around fifteen minutes and then follow that by ramping up your maximum effort for a period of around ten minutes before going back to effortless paddling once again. This one round makes the leg muscles perfect for both short outbursts of speed and also for long distance running and is one of the best indoor exercises for athletes.
Riding uphill is also another great cycling exercise and along with your leg muscles it also puts a considerable amount of strain on your back and stomach muscles. So it helps in burning belly fat quickly. _________________ yoga jeans |
