Paragraph 1
Cycling is a great
to keep fit and healthy. It strengthens our
, keeps our weight down, and is good for
health. A little-known and (perhaps) surprising
of getting on a bike is that it is good for our knees. A new study says cyclists are less likely to experience knee pain later in
than people who do not ride bicycles. The study was conducted by a
team from Baylor College of Medicine in the USA. Researchers surveyed 2,600 men and women, with an
age of 64. The survey participants were asked about their levels of
activity. They also had
of their knees taken. This was to look for signs and levels of arthritis in their knee
.
