Many riders say that the bike ride is going to be chill. That is nice
However, one of the goals of physical fitness is to be fitter than before. Thus the Olympic motto of Citius - Higher, Altius - Higher, Fortius - Stronger make sense. Especially for a senior like me. I have to exercise to be fitter. Because otherwise, I become weaker, I lose muscle mass. I become weaker and yes older.
I read relevant post that in swimming one has to end the session with fewer strokes say from 14 of a 50 m pool, to twelve. That means you have to find ways how to be efficient and stronger.
Thus as I bike to achieve certain goals I have to undertake several biking mode/tasks:
1. Faster - lubricate, wash bike, change bearings, Sprint occasionally
2. Stronger - climb hills, use large chain rings in climbing
3 Higher - climb higher hills, engage in long rides
Do you have similar goals when you bike
Focus on your being healthier rather than spending more on your bike. It does not do anything to you self improvement if you spend more PHP on your bikes.
