About Kayaking
Kayaking is a full-body water sport that builds upper body and core strength while providing moderate cardiovascular exercise. Paddling engages the back, shoulders, arms, and core muscles in a rhythmic motion. Kayaking can be enjoyed on lakes, rivers, and oceans, making it both a recreational and competitive activity. The resistance of water against the paddle creates continuous muscle engagement, while the balance required activates stabilizer muscles throughout the body.
