You can also do other sports and activities, Swimming is one of teh best fitness sports of all, no impact, little chance of injury and gets all your muscles working. Running will get your heart rate up and even a good long walk will help or maybe Cycling? But realistically any other physical activity or sport will help, Bouldering is a great exercise as it gets you stretching as well. It would be good to hear your ideas, please drop us an email at canoeing@thesharks.org.uk.
