Sports contribute a lot to health, for both children and adults. If there is one sport that is overlooked that results in benefits like enhanced fitness and weight loss, then it is skating. Skating is a combination of art and sports. Practised by all age groups, it is a popular recreational activity that has social, physical and health benefit. For kids it is even more advantageous as this sport teaches teamwork, trust, sharing responsibilities and working together towards a common goal.

There are different styles of skating like roller skating, inline skating and rollerblading. All these forms are known to strengthen the heart. Skating is a cardiovascular activity and many studies suggest that roller sport is an effective form of aerobic exercise. Skating also works your muscles like anything, helps tone the body and achieve agility, balance and coordination. For diseases like diabetes, doctors recommend strength training and aerobic exercises – both of which are benefits of skating. In addition, inline skating is helpful in increasing muscle endurance. During skating, you are less likely to have any joint damage unlike other sports as all the forms of skating are low-impact sports. Skating also releases the happy hormones known as endorphins.
