Monday Workout

Monday Workout and Winter Sports

I know that we don't have snow yet but at least you are getting some ideas for when it does arrive.  It will arrive, it always does.  We do get a green Christmas every now and then.  It's hard to believe that it is December 14th and it is 13 degrees Celsius outside.  Anyways......

Snowshoeing.

Do you remember when you were a kid and you got to go snowshoeing.  Well it's a great sport to take up this winter and a great form of exercise.

There are different forms of snowshoeing... there is the classic form of aerobic workout where you go for a long leisurely walk in the woods, going up and down hills and having fun with a loved one, or friends.

There is also snowshoe running, which is a newer sport that is hosted in Alberta and Quebec.  The snowshoes are slightly narrower than regular snowshoes.  If you can run, you can do this sport.  The major difference is that you have to lift your knees more and it is like running on soft sand.  The workout is great for cardio and your legs will feel like jelly when your done.

Get out and enjoy the snow with family and friends when it arrives... you'll make wonderful memories, and have a great workout too.
