Let's cycle our work anxiety away

I remember spending an hour cycling every evening (unless it rained cats and dogs) when I was a teenager. It was not because I was made to run errands but it was for leisure and fun after a long day's school.

Many of us spend at least 10 to 12 hours at work only to return home with stiffened shoulders and low back pain. Demanding job requirements have resulted in stress-related manifestations e.g. headache, palpitation, dizziness and sleeplessness.

Cycling to work may offer some relief when you are physically stronger and having time to destress while pedalling the bike. You would also have a lower heart rate and be able to sleep better once you are cycling regularly.
