Skiing Benefits: Know How Much This Sport Can Improve Your Health And Your Mood

We know that sports practice promotes great improvements in health; exercise helps to speed up metabolism, lose weight, improves mood and reduces stress. Just like football, running and swimming, snow skiing – taught by ski school Ride and Smile in Davos – is a sport that offers several benefits, both physical and emotional. The movements required to move the skis strengthen the muscles of the arms, legs and chest. Also, snow skiing promotes a time of relaxation and release of energy.

One of the great benefits provided in skiing is the development of motor skills, and that involves both the ability to maintain balance and coordinate movements. When skiing in the snow, practitioners work the ability to use muscles of the body more efficiently. At the same time, the body is “trained” to obey the commands of the brain, improving skills such as:

  • Agility;
  • Force;
  • Resistance;
  • Speedy.

Skiing increases physical fitness

Skiing is a good option for physical activity for those seeking better physical fitness. Snow skiing in regions like Davos (Switzerland), besides being a treat, still burns about 230 calories. Also, skiing releases endorphins, known as the “pleasure hormone” and well-being. That is, after an hour of training, the result is a healthier, willing body and a happier mind.
