A seasoned attorney with solo practice experience, Andrew Barovick works as a partner with Alegria & Barovick LLP, where he advises on the selection of new cases and helps clients obtain benefits or money they deserve. The leader of an active lifestyle outside of work, Andrew Barovick enjoys cross-country skiing.
Sometimes referred to as “Nordic skiing,” the activity provides a workout to both the upper and lower body, as practitioners generate locomotion themselves rather than by relying on a slope. Consequently, cross-country skiers tend to develop strong cores, legs, and arms via not only repetitive pushing and pulling, but also the effort required to maintain balance.
According to Health Fitness Revolution, which provides resources related to both physical and mental fitness, cross-country skiing results in more calories being burned per unit of time than any other sport, with the most ardent practitioners consuming over 1,100 per hour.
Moreover, the activity is touted for being low impact, especially when compared to jogging, as the feet land relatively softly after being lifted but a short distance from the ground, thereby minimizing trauma to muscles and joints.
