Squash: Total Body Fitness
Exercise to Get Fit and Boost Health
Squash workouts help to raise general fitness levels by exercising and strengthening a variety of muscle groups throughout the body, including both the cardio and skeletal muscles. By raising heart-beat rate, they contribute to improved heart health and lower risk of heart disease.
