During the recent pandemic, one of the most highly sought-after modes of transportation was cycling due to lockdowns and the scarcity of available means of travel at that time. The bicycle also stands as one of the most excellent tools for exercise, as it doesn’t discriminate by age and opens up a plethora of destinations to explore. Through cycling, you engage in an activity that burns over 50% more calories than walking, minute for minute… For the average woman*, a mere 30-minute moderate cycling session can incinerate 202 calories, while the average man* burns 225 calories. Extend this to an hour, and women will expend 404 calories, with men expending 450 calories.
There are also various types of bicycles, such as Mountain Bikes, Road Bikes, Folding Bikes, Tandem Bikes, Touring Bikes, Cyclocross Bikes, Hybrid Bicycles, Cruiser Bicycles and BMX. Biking is also one of the cleanest means of transportation when it comes to pollution, as a bike releases very little CO₂ into the air. So, right from the start, it possesses a significant environmental advantage. Particularly for shorter journeys, you are most likely to observe the substantial environmental benefits of cycling. While, driving motorized vehicles like cars stands as one of the major contributors to air pollution. Car fuels, specifically, emit gases like carbon dioxide (CO₂) and nitrogen dioxide, which pose serious harm to the environment when released in large quantities.
In the video, you can see the woman riding on her BMX Bike while maintaining balance with a bottle of mineral water on her head. You can also hear the person recording the video (Marielle Amaba) as she requesting more tricks. She was also showcased by a biker performing an impressive trick. The woman’s biking skills are extraordinary, especially considering her gender. Learning to ride a bicycle proficiently requires practice and balance, regardless of gender, before achieving mastery.
While many of us may excel in cycling, only a few possess the ability to maintain such balance, particularly when the bike is moving at a swift pace and being controlled by a woman. Currently, the video has garnered millions of views and has been widely shared across various social media platforms, attesting to its viral nature.
