Do you want to burn off a few pounds? One of the most fun ways to do it is by kayaking. You can burn hundreds of calories per hour kayaking, and that can lead to real results if you kayak on a regular basis. That’s not the only benefit of kayaking, either. Check out a few other benefits you will enjoy when you get out on the water in a kayak.
Kayaking will reduce stress.
If you feel stressed out from work or something else that’s going on in your life, you can blow off some steam by getting into a kayak. Between all the fresh air that you will get when you’re kayaking and the exercise you’ll be giving your body, you will feel great when you step out of your kayak at the end of the day.
It will help you increase your vitamin D levels.
Far too many people don’t get enough vitamin D. They don’t spend time out in the sun and are thus robbed of the opportunity to increase their vitamin D levels. Kayaking is a simple way to give your body the vitamin D it needs. You don’t want to spend too much time baking in the sun since it could present problems for your skin. But you can get your vitamin D levels up quickly by jumping into a kayak.
It will strengthen your core.
The core muscles in your body are responsible for keeping your back and other areas of your body strong. You can strengthen your core, which consists of your upper and lower abdominal muscles, by paddling a kayak for a few hours and controlling it in the water. You will be sore the first few times you kayak, but before long, you’ll start to feel stronger than ever before.
