Could it be that since women have weaker joints, bones and ligaments than men, speaking generally, so that overweight women are recommended cycling as a form of exercise because it renders their excess bodyweight harmless to the knees and other stressed areas of the body. Running, aerobics and other high-impact exercises could be bad for many of them, at least in the beginning.
