If Australians have taken anything away from the pandemic, it is the fact that we need to get ourselves into better shape so that our immune systems remain strong to be able to fight anything that comes our way. If your medical practitioner has also told you that you could do with incorporating some much-needed exercise into your day then it’s up to you to find something that is enjoyable and that you like to do. Not many of us enjoy doing exercise but there are certain activities that give your body an excellent workout and are incredibly fun as well.
I am talking about fishing as it works all of the body and if you get a bite and depending on the size of the fish, it could take an hour or more to reel it in. If this sounds like an exciting proposition then maybe a fishing charter in Merimbula is just what the doctor ordered. If you’re thinking to yourself that fishing is a relaxing pastime and one that doesn’t provide sufficient exercise then you would be right on the first point and wrong on the second. The following are just some of the many health benefits for both mind and body when it comes to fishing.
- It reduces stress levels – All of us carry around far too much stress in our bodies and it is having a detrimental effect on our general health and well-being. Not only is high stress really bad for your heart health but is not good for your mental health either. You need to get yourself out of the office or out of the house for a few hours a week and so this is why going on a fishing charter is the perfect answer.
- It gets the heart pumping – If you have never gone fishing before then you should know that there are a number of pretty large fish out there in the ocean that are waiting for you to catch them. If you get a bite then it is incredibly exciting and if you get one of the bigger fish then things start to increase in intensity. You really are going to work your arms and shoulders as well is your lower body to reel in this fish and it will give your body a full workout.
You can get the exercise that you need and the adrenaline rush all in one day out on a fishing charter.
