Wind-Surfing
Water sports combine both exercise and fun. Moreover, the water is there to cool you off so you don't get too hot. No wonder water sports are becoming more popular all the time.
One of the most popular water sports is wind-surfing. It is not only one of the best forms of exercise, but it is also cheap. Unlike many other sports, you don't have to lay out money for your equipment. You can rent it for an hour or for as long as you want. The only problem is that it is not that simple. Although advertisements for wind-surfing claim that  it is easy, those who have tried it have a different story to tell. It takes time to learn how to use the power of the wind and to control the board. First-timers often happily sail away from the shore and then realize that they cannot go back..
It is not necessary to be extremely fit before taking up this sport, although it is important to be able to swim. Wind-surfers come in all shapes and sizes, and from all age groups.It takes a relatively short time for beginners to be able to stand up on the board and sail with the wind. And when     that happens for the first time, the surfers get the most fantastic feeling   of achievement.
Apart from fun and personal achievement, wind-surfing gives you strength and energy. It is a way of exercising most of the muscles in the body. Even though every muscle in your body will ache after the first few tries, that won't stop you from doing it again and again. No wonder it is so popular.
