A stationary bicycle is a daydream and idea machine. It’s just you, the flywheel, the pedals and your thoughts.
It’s really easy to get bored. Music helps with that. But once you get in the zone, your mind starts to wander.
And that’s when new ideas are produced.
Any form of exercise has that effect, specially if it’s an activity that doesn’t require a lot of mental effort. Maybe it’s my brain getting bored and coming up with wild ideas and dreams to distract itself, maybe it’s the increased blood flow. Who knows.
But if I can get new ideas and stay in shape, I should do it more often.
And yes, I did come up with this post while exercising.
