workplace can stimulate circulation and relieve stress, burning 6 kg of fat in a year.
To fast-track fitness, cycling up an incline is a fabulous way. One must also
remember that riding a bicycle is a symbol of simple living—a positive attitude
towards a more fulfilling life. (Para 2)

One is less threatened by traffic congestion and ‘road rage’. Bicycle commuters are
a happier lot. They get less sick, therefore, are more productive workers. To squeeze
exercise into an already busy day, cycle to workplace. An average person can thus
burn 300 to 400 calories per day. Stronger heart and lungs, increased muscle mass
and a less stressed constitution are what one gets in the bargain. Wait, there’s more.
