Although the TRIKKE is addictive fun, it is still a phenomenal fitness workout machine. Riding the trikke can work all your major muscle groups. As you develop as a rider and become more in tune with your body and the trikke ride, you can customize your workout focus. Some days you might want to work your legs more. Some days you might want to work your chest and arms for a great upper body work out. Some days you might want to put a little more “carve” intensity into your workout to accentuate your abdominals as with an oblique machine.
Make sure that you take care of the most important part of your body in your workout—your heart. Remember to warm up into your ride. Take at least 10 minutes and ideally 20 to ride slowly, giving your heart rate the chance to rise just as slowly. Never kick start with inclines and pushes without warming up first! Your heart will appreciate this warm up as will the rest of your body. Consider getting a heart rate monitor for your workouts. Using this and understanding your target heart rate will help you stay within the range you need to be, as well as giving you a tool to monitor your fitness progress.
