Your favorites--along with ice-skating--are considered the top winter workouts. The reason: Each one requires continuous effort without rest, so your heart rate stays up, increasing the cardiovascular benefits. Even the weight of added layers of clothes, such as knit hats and down jackets, helps intensify the burn.
Snow-shoeing can burn up to 544 calories while working your abs, thighs and calves. Use poles to give your upper body a workout, too.
Cross-Country Skiing burns 510 calories and works the shoulders, arms and thighs. Raise your arms to shoulder height to improve the cardio benefit.
Ice-Skating burns 425 calories and works the thighs and calves. Go backward to challenge your leg muscles even more.
Downhill Skiing burns 374 calories and works the abs, thighs and butt. Follow an exaggerated zigzag pattern while descending to work your core harder.

Summer time is a great time to get together with friends and play your favorite sport without having too much pressure. Softball, basketball, and wiffle ball are all fun sports, but why not go and hang out in an ice-cold rink and play the best sport in the world. Summer hockey leagues are the best way to stay in shape, keep cool, and have a good time with your friends.
By doing these sports you can easily lose up to 500 calories.

Do you take your kids to the park? Sign them up for soccer or softball? Parents who care about their children’s health likely encourage outdoor play and participation in organized sports. In the spring, as we begin to shop for soccer cleats and baseball mitts, it is wise to investigate how your school and municipality manage their green spaces.
Keeping your kids active in sports will help them burn plenty of calories and stay healthy. |
