There are many benefits to skating. Studies have shown that roller skating provides a complete aerobic workout and involves all the body's muscles, especially the heart. Probably a bit surprising to most. However, roller skating is recognized and recommended by the American Heart Association (AHA) as an aerobic fitness sport. Additionally, skating is less impactful on feet and joints than many traditional exercises, thus helping it to become one of the favorite training programs of many amateur and professional athletes. So go ahead! Have fun and skate those calories away!
