The Benefits of taking the Path Less Traveled

If you like being outdoors and want to cover more ground, using an ATV is a great choice. When riding along an ATV trail, you can go slower and take in the scenery, or kick up a little dirt to get the adrenaline pumping! Here are a few benefits of exploring the outdoors with an ATV or UTV:

Good for the body

Most people don’t think of ATV’s in relation to exercise. Although it’s not heavy cardio like running, it does require you to work your arm and chest muscles to control the ATV. It’s also great to get that heart pumping!

Reduces stress

Let’s face it – there’s more stress out there and it affects us from the time we wake up to the time we go to sleep. Getting on an ATV and riding along a dirt trail can help you ‘cut loose’ and let go of the worries.

Improves your mood

Studies show that natural sunlight can actually improve a person’s mood.

Exposure to sunlight is thought to increase the brain’s release of a hormone called serotonin. Serotonin is associated with boosting mood and helping a person feel calm and focused. Take in nature’s best on a winding trail – the white clouds against a blue sky, birds chirping, the smell of fresh air – it’s the simple things that can put our life back in balance.

Liberating

Ever get a brain block? It can happen to all of us. When can’t solve a problem, sometimes it’s best to just stop and take a break. Having the wind in your face, the scenery rushing by, it takes our mind off what’s holding us back, and in turn gets us back on track.

Connect with Friends and Family

Traditional things like going for a walk or biking in the park are great activities, but sometimes it’s nice to switch things up a bit and enjoy some new scenery. ATV riding is a super fun activity that can be shared and enjoyed by everyone.
