Heather Tom Enjoys the Benefits of Cycling
Heather Tom says the new fitness trend on the West Coast is cycling. The daytime drama actress and star of the Bold and the Beautiful has decided to cycle the 26-mile return journey between her home in Glendale, California, and the film studio every day.
The 34-year-old two-time Emmy award winner says the trip not only keeps her fit, but it also benefits the environment. This environmentally-friendly way to travel cuts down on the carbon-fuel emissions blamed for pollution and global warming, and with the current state of the planet, small changes like these in your lifestyle can make a difference.
Cycling not only helps improve your balance and coordination, it’s also a great cardio workout that tones and strengthens your leg and abdominal muscles. The cardio gets your blood pumping and lungs working, reducing your risk of coronary heart disease, and if done over a period of time builds your stamina.
If you’re a bit heavy and are new to exercise, cycling is a good way to ease yourself into working out. You can control how fast you want to go and how hard you would like to push yourself simply by changing gears and route.
Getting a workout outdoors helps ease any anxiety or depression you may be suffering from after a stressful day or week and getting in touch with nature goes a long way to reconnecting with your soul.
