I went on a trip to Los Angeles to visit my best friend recently and he's an avid biker, so of course we went on a bike ride while I was visiting. It was great to be outside in the nice weather, and while we were riding around, I again realised I'm out of shape.
So I've been getting back on the exercise bike. Its been good; I like to stay active, but I must be one of the most lacsadaisical exercisers out there! I do it regularly, so in my mind that's what counts. :-)
I use the bike to raise my heart rate because the other kind of exercise I get is walking. I love to walk but its an even more passive type of exercise - my heart rate doesn't really increase very much.
