According to a study done by St-Onge MP, Keller KL and Steven B. Heymsfield SB, people have become more overweight because of increased calorie intake that is not offset by physical activity. Super Sized Cycles sells nine different styles of bicycles, three of which have electric assistance for those who need an extra push to get them back on track and enjoying exercise and the wind in their hair once again. All orders are placed, customers are counseled and production is fulfilled at www.SuperSizedCycles.com so the intimidation factor most overweight people face when shopping for a bicycle in person is not a deterrent to their health or their self-esteem anymore.

In order to get benefits from exercise, maintenance of an elevated heart rate needs to be kept for at least 20 minutes, which is easier on a bicycle because of the seated positioning and less weight bearing pressure on an obese person’s relatively fragile joints. (Erich Rosenberg, M.D.)
