Canoeing involves paddling a canoe through water using a single-bladed paddle, engaging the arms, shoulders, back, and core with each stroke. Recreational canoeing on calm water provides a moderate workout, while paddling against currents or on whitewater dramatically increases the intensity. The rotational nature of the paddle stroke develops core stability and trunk rotation strength. Canoeing is also an excellent low-impact activity that allows you to exercise while enjoying nature and scenic waterways.
