A member asked:
Can you tell me is 45 minutes of cycling a day enough for a 14 year old to keep in shape?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Absolutely!: This should be plenty! Might be a little overboard as a daily activity, but if your child is wanting to ride at this level this is fine. Cycling is easy on the joints, just be sure your teen is wearing her helmet and following the road rules for cyclists. I do recommend one day a week of rest.
