Will I Lose Weight Paddle Boarding?

Will I Lose Weight Paddle Boarding?

Paddle boarding is a great way to stay active and enjoy the outdoors. It's also an effective way to burn calories and lose weight. But will you actually see results if you paddle board regularly? In this blog post, we'll explore the potential of paddle boarding for weight loss and how to maximize your results.

WHAT IS PADDLE BOARDING?
Paddle boarding is a water sport that involves standing on a wide, buoyant board and using a long paddle to propel yourself through the water. It's an excellent full-body workout that can help you build strength, balance, and endurance while enjoying the scenery around you.
 
MUSCLES WORKED WHILE PADDLE BOARDING
Paddle boarding is definitely a full-body workout! All areas of your body are exercised while paddling.
Upper Body: Pectorals, Deltoids
Back: Trapezius, Rhomboids and Lats.

JUST ABOUT EVERY MUSCLE IS WORKED WHILE PADDLE BOARDING
HOW MANY CALORIES DOES PADDLE BOARDING BURN?

The exact number of calories burned while paddle boarding depends on several factors such as your weight, intensity level, and duration of your session. Generally speaking, it's estimated that an hour of moderate-intensity paddle boarding can burn up to 500 calories for someone who weighs 150 pounds. That number increases if you increase the intensity or add in some additional exercises like squats or lunges while you're out on the water.

TIPS FOR MAXIMIZING WEIGHT LOSS WITH PADDLE BOARDING
If you're looking to maximize your weight loss with paddle boarding, there are a few tips that can help:

- Increase Your Intensity: To burn more calories during your session, try increasing your intensity by paddling faster or adding in some additional exercises like squats or lunges while you're out on the water.

- Change Up Your Routine: To keep things interesting and prevent boredom from setting in, try changing up your routine every once in awhile by doing different types of exercises or paddling in different directions.

- Make It Social: Invite friends or family members to join you for a paddle boarding session so that you can have fun together while getting fit!

- Track Your Progress: Tracking your progress is key when it comes to seeing results from any exercise routine. Keep track of how many calories you burn during each session as well as any changes in body composition (such as inches lost) so that you can stay motivated and on track with your goals.

Paddle boarding is an excellent way to stay active and enjoy the outdoors while burning calories and potentially losing weight over time. By increasing your intensity level, changing up your routine periodically, making it social with friends or family members, and tracking your progress along the way, you can maximize your results with paddle boarding for weight loss!
