About Sailing
Sailing involves navigating a boat using wind power by adjusting sails, lines, and the rudder. While it may seem passive, active sailing requires constant physical engagement — pulling lines (sheets), cranking winches, hiking out to balance the boat, and moving around the deck. Racing sailors in dinghies or keelboats get an intense full-body workout. Even casual sailing engages the arms, core, and legs as you respond to changing wind and water conditions.
