Being able to do a different activity, which changes the patterns of our mind, allowing us to relax and enjoy the moment. Moto trail has the small plus that it is an activity that in many cases comes loaded with adrenaline.

Adrenaline is a hormone that our body produces in very specific situations (sports or exercise situations, also in situations of pleasure and stress).


One of the main effects of adrenaline is that it produces a state of energizing happiness. Among the psychological benefits of adrenaline we can achieve its effects after its sensation and that is that after experiencing an ecstasy of adrenaline it produces an effect of interpersonal well-being.

Generally when we start a new activity and we usually immerse ourselves in courses, activities, news and other events related to moto trail. We are naturally looking for companions or people who also have a common interest (trail motorcycle).
In short, we enter a community where we have constant communication with other people and this can be beneficial. This gives many advantages on a social level, most of all because we are in a community supported by people who can support us both on a technical level within the world of moto trail and on an external level in case of an emergency, these people who will become friends can look after us. for you in an emergency situation.

9. Travel and exploration of landscapes

One of the main attractions of moto trail is that thanks to these large-displacement all-terrain motorcycles we can have access to areas or areas where not every vehicle has the capacity to enter. Thanks to the moto trail we can have access to very exclusive landscapes of nature, this is a great advantage since many of these landscapes have a unique nature that transports us to a setting of peace.


Psychologically, changing the landscape or environment has many pros and is part of the change in routine. A natural environment is healthy since it also establishes a connection with nature; generally these landscapes are quite different from urban and work environments where we usually develop our lives and also, unfortunately, we tend to get stressed.


Being in natural environments and landscapes, this serves as a break from the same stressful environments that we usually experience (office, city, home, among others), generating a different situation and along with it a relaxing, anti-stressful feeling.

10. Improvement in concentration


Moto trail is an excellent practice to develop concentration, but why does moto trial help improve concentration and motor skills? The answer to this question lies in the driving and balance of riding a motorcycle.

Simple handling requires a minimum of concentration to avoid colliding with another car or motorcycle. In trail riding this action (concentration) is intensified a little unlike driving normal vehicles. This is because the routes or routes that the motorcycle trail usually uses are usually very different (dirt roads, various obstacles, sand, among other elements of nature).
The development of balance, basic but necessary, occurs with the driving of motorcycles, skateboards and bicycles, trail motorcycles are no exception to this rule. Balance is important-



11. Physical benefits


Moto trail is not a sport strictly speaking, however there are many sports with which it has many similarities, such as motocross or moto trail. Moto trail as an activity generates a small physical demand, this demand can, in many cases, generate physical benefits.
When riding a motorcycle, as happens similarly with riding a bicycle, our body takes an aerodynamic posture, for curves or when crashing into the wind, we also tend to move our wrists, push the motorcycles. In all of these cases, it allows the body to tone the body to a very slight degree.

We also have the other physical benefits resulting from adrenaline, previously we saw the psychological effects, here we will name the physical ones.

From a blood point of view, blood pumping (product of adrenaline) increases, which makes muscle exercise easier, since they become much more oxygenated.

The difference between the psychological benefits is that they are minor, however, they are felt. Of course, if you are looking for an activity that has more physical benefits, it would be good to complement the moto trail activity with a gym or jogging routine, since these activities can be used for the moto trail routine. Jogging can benefit you to develop cardiovascular resistance, something that can benefit the driver so that they are less tired on the road.

In addition, being an activity that is carried out in natural environments, it also promotes a deeper connection with nature, which in turn can have positive effects on emotional well-being.
