Scooting is a great choice, if you are looking for a low impact cardio workout to stay in shape. Low impact cardio workout, means the heart rate is not exposed to heavy fatigue. Your body will reach a stage where it starts to burn your fat for fuel.
Scooting comes in between cycling and running. You sweat and yet you get the fun factor out of it. It makes your body do all the workout, especially the lower body muscles at your thighs, knee, calf, and back muscles.
An easy exercise is to find a hilly terrain with an appropriate slope, and scoot up and roll down a couple of times. Make sure you switch your legs evenly, and not only train the dominant leg.
If your daily lifestyle is always sitting, hunching over a desk or computer, then scooting will counteract with your sedentary lifestyles.
