Fun And Healthy Winter Activities

Cross Country Skiing Or Snowshoeing

Both cross-country skiing and snowshoeing have been around for millennia. The former may have been practiced as long ago as 500 BCE in modern-day China, and the latter was invented sometime between four and six thousand years ago, this time probably in Central Asia. Both were developed for practical reasons and turned into recreational activities in modern-day snow play. Each sport is a total body workout, including for micro muscles. These sports also improve balance, develop muscles, and works out the heart well. Whether cross-country skiing or snowshoeing, mood and energy get a lift from being outside in the brisk weather and the body gets a great workout for burning calories while building muscle mass and giving the heart a workout.
