A member asked:
Does cycling or spinning increase the risk of prostate cancer? i have read a few articles that it can increase inflammation and thus increase the risk for prostate problems in the future?

If done in a position it can irritate the prostate area. But it will not cause cancer or chronic prostatitis. Pl dont believe what you read on the 'net' as it is mostly garbage.
