From stress reduction to weight management, E-bike riding is proving to be a revolution in the way people approach cycling, commuting, exploring their community, and improving their overall health and wellness.
When used in pedal-assist mode, E-bikes offer a world of healthy benefits to both body and mind. Plus, since EBC E-bikes’ pedal assist levels can be adjusted on the fly, riders control their level of exertion—making E-bikes ideal for a vast array of fitness levels and inclusive for a wide-variety of ages and physical capabilities.
E-bikes increase range, mobility, and terrain possibility all while allowing riders to personalize their workout. Whether empowering people limited by physical ability to rediscover an old favorite pastime or giving greater capability to accomplished cyclists to push themselves further or expand their riding potential, the level of assist is individualized and fully adjustable.
So, whether riding with a major boost or just a little assist, here are some of EBC’s favorite reasons to get rolling:
- Low-impact: E-bike riding is gentle on joints and muscles while still offering the many benefits of physical activity.
- Heart health: Cycling is known as a great cardio exercise and E-bike riding is no different. Accessible to a wide-range of fitness levels, with adjustable pedal assist riders choose their level of exertion making it a great way to improve heart health.
- Weight management: Getting the heart pumping also means riders are burning calories, promoting healthy weight loss and/or management.
- Fun = frequent: The more you ride and the further you go, the greater the health benefits. Pedal assist can be just the “push” riders need to make riding more fun, making rides more frequent.
