Still not ready to head to the mountain? Skiing and snowboarding have some other extra benefits you should consider.

If you’re trying to get rid of some extra holiday pounds, these activities are a great way to get a fun workout. When you ski or snowboard, you tone muscles and get cardio at the same time. Skiing and snowboarding work your calves, hamstrings, quads and abs while increasing your flexibility and agility.

Your mind will see some benefits too. “The thrill of shredding the powder is good for your mental health,” says Dr. Jonathan Chang in this WebMD article on winter sports. 

Skiing and snowboarding are a great family activity. With everything from bunny trails to black diamonds, these mountains fit skiers and boarders of every ability and fitness level.
