Benefits of skating
A Try Skating Event
Scotland's bad health record plus the population trend to overweight makes skating particularly relevant. Skating is one of the best fitness and exercise disciplines that can help you lose weight without having to change your eating habits. Skating ranks along side the best outdoor physical activities e.g. swimming, cycling, running, skiing, outdoor games, etc. Lack of exercise is one of the fundamental reasons for the populations poor health record in Scotland affecting both adults and now children.
Would you ever consider skating on holiday?
Many new skaters set goals by first visiting London and taking part in the Sunday Stroll, the London Skate and finally the London Friday Night Skate (LFNS). Take a look at skate tours on the continent.
Why not cross the channel and try the 'Pari-Roller'
Join over 10,000 skaters (yes ten thousand), imagine the buzz you would get, and skate round the famous city for 25 kilometres any Friday night. What an achievement for any intermediate skater. It is completely FREE as are most night skates held in cities throughout Europe. If Don can skate the Pari-Roller you certainly can!
Why not skate to work?
This of course depends on distances and road surfaces. In Scotland weather plays a part as well. If possible it makes economic sense, it is cost effective and delivers your daily dose of exercise at the same time. Look out for cycle trails and quiet roads where surfaces are skater friendly.
Skating adapts to your lifestyle
It fits into your busy schedule. It is a lifestyle activity allowing and presenting opportunities to meet like minded people in social and active groups. No need to book courts or pitches. No big outlay in hefty annual subscriptions, skating has everything in its favour but you have to try it for yourself, It really is worth the effort because it is a lifetime skill but you will never know unless you give it a go!
