There is no better way to start the day than having a morning ride on the bike. This way, your perspective could change for the rest of the day, while you will have an unexplained energy throughout the day.

Benefits of morning cycling

Starting a day with some form of exercise is a very good practice. The biggest advantage is that you start your day with something you love and there will be nothing that will make you deviates from your walk or workout such as low energy levels; work overtime, psychological fatigue and so on.

When you wake up early to work out, you teach your body to sleep better and easier. Morning cycling also reduces blood pressure as it calms the body burst by awakening. Lower blood pressure during the day translates into better night sleep. It’s a “routine” that will make you a different person.

The in the morning the roads are relatively empty, so you will experience fewer vehicles. Those who are in the mountain will have the pleasure of seeing the sunrise in nature and feeling unprecedented feelings of calm and tranquility.

Make a programme

The morning cycling requires careful programming from the day before, as it should be all set to spend as much time on your bike as possible. It’s not as practical as one wakes up looking for a shampoo to replace the broken rubber.

Prepare your things from the previous night. Cycling jerseys, shoes, socks and whatever else is necessary to the best prepared ladies cruiser. You do not want as soon as you have woken up – in the blur of sleeping – you leave without taking the bucket with your isotonic or forget the GPS. Put everything you need in a bag from the night before, get ready and get started. Of course, from the preparation you should not miss the bike. Tire pressure test, brake control and whatever else is needed.

Don’t forget to eat. Morning cycling on an empty stomach can have many benefits for the body, but this only happens when the tension is relatively mild. If you are planning to do a very strong workout or do more than 60-90 ‘then you have to prepare your food as well. Think about which foods your body can digest quickly and do it accordingly. Another practice is to prepare a snack to bring with you and consume it during the ride. You can also take your coffee together, though it is much better to avoid coffee and let the body “wake up” normally.

Sleep. Going for early cycling first requires you to sleep well. It is not worth sacrificing a few hours of quality sleep to get out on a bike. During the day you will regret it and it may be the reason you will quit morning cycling.

Wake up! Every person needs a different time from the moment they open their eyes until they are “functional”. Others when they get up, they are ready to win the Tour de France while others in order to ride on the bike will have to spend a reasonable amount of time.

Routes. You must have come to the path that you will follow before you even lie down to bed. Choose routes, which can be done in the early morning time. Avoid early explorations as a wrong junction is enough to make you lose valuable time and delay the rest of the day’s obligations.
