Health and Fitness Journal

You know I’ve been searching for years to find a hobby that is not only fun but also great for your health and fitness. Well, I think I have finally discovered it - dirt bikes! About two weeks ago I was invited by some friends to go away on a camping trip. Along with us came two dirt bikes. Once we got to the camp ground the first thing we did was go for a ride around the surrounding bushes. Well, what fun. Zipping in and out of the trees, going off jumps, riding through little creeks, it was amazing.

You’re probably wondering what this hobby has to do with fitness. Well, after about 1 hour of riding I was absolutely exhausted. All my muscles were aching. I think the fact that you are pretty much using all of your muscles to control the bike makes it a good sport to work all your muscles groups. In terms of health, what better a way to stay healthy than to breathe in the fresh air and eat some nice fresh meat and vegetables over the BBQ. I plan to do this again and would highly recommend anyone else out there looking for a new hobby to take it up.
