It is well known that outdoor activities and sports strengthen human health, beneficially affecting all body systems - respiratory, immune, cardiovascular, digestive, hormonal.
Among the many sports invented by society, the most effective in terms of recovery are those activities that take place in the fresh air. After all, it is not for nothing that trekking, mountain hiking, biking, rafting, snowboarding and skiing are becoming increasingly popular . The benefits of such a holiday are beyond doubt, therefore, more and more citizens, regardless of age and gender, devote their leisure time to this kind of travel. These are vivid emotions, and aesthetic pleasure, and physical activity, after which the body is still in good shape for a long time.
One of the oldest and most popular types of outdoor activities is skiing, the use of which has been proven for a long time. What does it consist of? Firstly, it’s fresh air that has beneficial effects on the lungs. Secondly, these are rhythmic movements, during which many different muscles are involved. And thirdly, both plain and, in particular, mountain skiing are always associated with beautiful nature. Looking at the endless snow-white expanses, at the fabulous hats of snow on the branches of trees, in the sun, sparkling brightly in winter, a person rests his soul. And this is also important. Thoughts find peace, the grayness of the city streets is forgotten and a wonderful sensation of quiet joy arises that does not give any medicine.
The benefits of skiing are doubly tangible if the healing effect of the mountain climate is added to it. Staying in the mountains alone has a therapeutic effect on a person: there are improvements in the functioning of the nervous system and the state of the bone marrow, there is euphoria, vigor, a surge of energy, the number of red blood cells in the blood increases, and the resistance of the whole organism increases. This is the basis of the whole field of medicine - orotherapy - the treatment and prevention of various diseases with the help of the mountain climate. It is not surprising that every year interest in Alpine, Caucasian, Carpathian and other winter resorts is growing. After all, it is stunningly beautiful nature, effective wellness and comfortable skiing - good in all respects.
In addition, mountains are the best antidepressant that relieves stress and helps strengthen the nervous system. When you look at the greatness of nature, all worries fade into the background and peace comes gradually. Under the influence of mountain air, fatigue decreases, the body's resistance to all kinds of adverse factors increases.
Another major plus in favor of skis is their positive effect on the figure. The body becomes tightened, excess fat disappears, instead of which strong and elastic muscles develop. That is why the fair sex, increasingly abandoning traditional shaping and fitness, choose skiing. The benefit of this sport is much more noticeable, since it is not just training - it is relaxation, pleasure, health, beauty, and even fashion. Therefore, many prefer winter resorts to travel to exotic countries and, despite the great temptation to fly from winter to summer, they still choose snow-covered slopes, which have their own unique charm.
Skiing is good for the whole family. For adults, this is a good way to build, strengthen the nervous system and increase vitality. And for children, skiing will become both entertainment and useful physical education, disciplining and strengthening health. Both of them with the help of skis will be able to strengthen and develop the spine, since this sport uses most of the back muscles.
