The physiological health benefits of bicycle commuting is well-documented. This novel study elucidates the effects of bicycle commuting at the vascular level by employing the gold standard measure for arterial stiffness. Objective: To monitor changes in body composition, metabolic, and cardiovascular health markers in adult bicycle commuters. Methods: This longitudinal study examines the health of bicycle commuters (n = 17, 7 males, age: 48.9 ± 10.9yr.; weight: 84.0 ± 19.7kg; height: 1.7 ± 0.1m) with measurements taken over a year (1: baseline; 2: 3-5 months; 3: 7 – 10 months; 4: 12 – 14 months). Measurements include pulse wave velocity (PWV), body mass index (BMI), waist : hip ratio (WHR), cholesterol ratio, blood glucose level, glycated h...
