Fishing is a Form of Exercise

While fishing with my husband this evening, I noticed that I was actually getting a bit of a workout. Not some hardcore, cardiovascular extravaganza, but a nice use of my arms and hands. My balance was also challenged as I stood and cast my rod time and again. Concentration came into play as I focused my attention on ripples (fish jumping?) on the surface of the water.

Exercise needn't be all about speed and high energy. Sometimes the steady, slow, thought-provoking activities turn out to be the ones that most challenge and expand our strengths.
