The specialist spoke about the benefits that traditional children's entertainment can bring during the New Year holidays.
According to the doctor, if you play active children's games in the fresh air, you can easily get rid of the extra calories gained during the festivities.
Andrey Tyazhelnikov, a freelance specialist in primary health care at the capital’s Department of Health, shared this opinion with RIA Novosti.
Winter fun, in addition to bright emotions, will also help burn a lot of calories, the specialist believes.
Among the most useful types of leisure, Tyazhelnikov named:
- playing snowballs;
- making a snowman;
- building a snow fort;
- sledding or tubing.
You can also combine business with pleasure thanks to skiing. The specialist noted that cross-country skiing will burn from 800 to 1100 calories per hour.
Snowboarding, skating, and hockey also help you lose weight. And if you don't like all of that, the doctor advised you to just walk more in your free time: walking also helps you get rid of calories.
