The Danish National Board of Health and the British Chief Medical Officer recommend that adults should do a minimum of 30 minutes moderate-intensity physical activity, five days a week.
These recommendations also apply to older adults, assuming they are healthy and mobile enough to manage them.
In fact, older people should take particular care to retain their mobility through daily activity.
Cycling is one of the better ways to achieve your exercise goals - plus you get a good mouthful of fresh air for free! Particular benefit for older people is cycling, as this activity improves strength, coordination and balance.
On a Victor tricycle, you get it all, in a safe and comfortable way.
Victor Power is the same tricycle, but fitted with an auxiliary electric motor. With an auxiliary electric motor, you don't have to worry about roads that go uphill, or headwind. The combination of you working the pedals and electric motor power gives you the feeling of having the wind behind you on every day - the electric motor gives the perfect amount of extra power.
From 0–15 km/h the motor gives the same power as the cyclist applies to the pedals.
From 15–24 km/h the motor decreases its performance.
Above 24 km/h you are coasting without help from the motor. When your speed once again goes under 24 km/h, the motor kicks in again.
The electric motor helps you on a distance up to about 30 km, depending on battery type, road condition, wind and weather, and how much you tread on the pedals.
