Snowshoeing: Get Fit, Burn Fat
Fitness and Fat-Burning Combined
Snowshoeing is a reasonable way to boost fitness and burn stored body fat.

In addition, snowshoeing helps to develop the leg muscles, so you get fit and get into shape.

About 45 minutes of snowshoeing burns about 495 calories. In one year, this daily fitness workout burns a total of 180,675 calories per year - about 52 pounds of stored body fat. This fat-burning improves the body's fat-percentage - the muscle-to-fat
ratio.
