High Intensity Interval Training makes you younger and stronger

Real Cyclists

From Cheapcures | March 22, 2013 

Many of the articles we read on bike training are of this type HIIT - High Intensity Interval Training.   Even Joel Javier frequently tells me this type of training as we ride.   As other bikers bike fast, strive not to get behind (that means you have to pedal harder when you are almost dead tired)  As you climb hills, pour out what you have in the 2nd half.

I found out that it is more effective to put your gears at say 53 x 14, bike slowly and even stand even for short distances.  I found out that I could stay with the leaders when the bike rides are long and tough.  Looks effective for me.

Is Exercise a Medicine?

Biking and good health
                                    
     

Normally we think of exercise as only benefiting only physical fitness. It has never occurred to our mind (or has it) that it benefits mental health or that it can be considered a medicine.

We have emphasized that exercise or intense physical activity of at least 30 minutes is a detox.  The perspiration from intense physical activity removes and releases toxic by products from the body.

It has been found out that exercise induces growth of brain cells.  We wonder whether there are other pharma medicine can induce brain genesis.
