Skiing to Get Fit, Burn
Fat
Fitness and Fat-Burning Combined
Skiing is a reasonable way to boost fitness and burn stored body fat. Skiing increases the number of calories burned, and - if combined with a calorie-controlled eating plan - will cause the body to burn it's stored fat - including stomach fat. In addition, skiing helps to develop the leg muscles, so you get fit and get into shape.
Skiing Improves Fat Percentage
About 45 minutes of skiing burns about 374 calories. In one year, this daily exercise workout burns a total of 131,400 calories per year - about 38 pounds of stored body fat. This fat-burning improves the body's fat-percent - the muscle-to-fat
ratio.
Skiing: Fat-Burning Health Benefits
Because it helps to burn body-fat, a regular fitness workout (like skiing) contributes to better health in several ways. It helps reduce stomach fat, associated with serious illness; it assists weight loss/control, thus maintaining normal cholesterol levels and blood pressure. Finally, it releases endorphins the happiness chemicals that improve mood. These health benefits are further boosted by a healthy diet plan.
