Ice Skating – A Great Way to Burn Calories
I am a person that does not like the cold AT ALL! I’m also a person that LOVES to work out. I am a self proclaimed gym rat, but even I get sick of the gym sometimes Recently, I rediscovered ice skating as a fun and exciting way to exercise and socialize with friends! Plus, you can burn around 350 calories an hour ice skating.
A friend of mine held an ice skating party – nothing formal – just a text message to lots of friends to meet at the local rink for two hours of fun! I must admit that I was reluctant – I HATE being in the cold and have not ice skated since I was in high school. I was willing to try it because I liked the idea that I could really work out my lower body, so “Just Did it” and had a blast.
I encourage you to try it as well. It is a fun work out that will have you feeling a little sore that next day, but will also give you great stories and bring you closer to your friends and family. It also brings you one step closer to achieving your fitness goals!
