It’s not a coincidence that there are a myriad of sports. Whether you’d rather go at it yourself or love the camaraderie of a team the benefits of taking up sports always outweigh the costs. Yet, the amount benefited from the sport depends on the intensity, amount of time spent and weight.
Surprised to hear golf burns almost as many calories as baseball? Surprised how many calories you can burn while sitting? I know, sitting isn’t a sport, but it’s still worth mentioning the amount of calories burned!
