Did you know building a snowman is a full-body workout? ⛄️💪

🔻Fitness trainers say that just one hour of sculpting a snowman can replace a proper gym session! It engages all your major muscle groups — arms, shoulders, and core — with constant bending, squatting, pushing, and lifting.

🔻And in the cold, you burn calories even faster thanks to thermogenesis: up to 300 calories in an hour of snowy fun!🔥

This is my favourite kind of January workout! How about yours?

🔻Лепить снеговика
