Let’s get Physical

“To keep the body in good health is a duty…otherwise we shall not be able to keep our mind strong and clear.” - Buddha -
Regular exercise is essential to a healthy lifestyle. Study after study shows that physical activity has a strong and positive impact on psychological wellbeing and mental health.

For many people this will mean the chore of going to the gym, but if you enjoy the outdoors, speed and adventure, physical activity can be a pleasure to look forward to. Moreover, the interaction between being in nature and being physically active will have even greater positive effects on wellbeing compared to physical activity in an indoor environment.

Talking about getting fit, outdoors and nature, water sports are a great choice to make the body’s muscles work and get in shape while having fun while enjoying the beach and the sea. The physical exercise involved with most water sports like rowing, paddle boarding or surfing is a complete one that will allow you to strengthen the muscles of the abdominals, arms and legs, improve fatigue resistance, balance and agility.

SUP for example, is getting a lot of praise as cardiovascular crossover training and considered a great way stay fit even without riding in waves. In addition, it is also an amazing way to enjoy coastal scenery and nature.
Developed in Hawaii and undoubtedly one the most popular water sports, surfing requires a great deal of body’s flexibility and balance. But wait! There is more! Thanks to the large amount of adrenaline released, surfing also provides an excellent way to evacuate stress.

The release of adrenaline which in sports practice helps us to improve strength, speed and endurance also plays an important role when practicing water sports such as the driving of a watercraft like a jet ski or a sea-doo.

Thanks to the large amounts of adrenaline released, these activities are a great way to decompress and manage stress.
As we venture further toward summer, and you are looking for some out of the ordinary ways to work on your fitness while enjoying the island of Mallorca from the sea, why not try a flyboard, a seabob or one of the latest jet skis and sea-doos on the market?
