Many people plan posh vacations where they mostly just shop, splurge and overindulge. There’s not a single thing wrong with that, but it’s not for everyone. If you’re looking for a rental with a pool table, we already know that you’re looking for something a bit different. Playing pool is a great way to bond, compete, and have fun. What most people don’t know is that it also has some serious physical and mental health benefits, too!
Let’s talk about how you can use the pool table vacation rental near you in Wisconsin to your advantage.
First and foremost, playing pool requires more physical activity than you’d think if you’ve never played it before. It requires good balance, limber movements, and excellent hand-eye coordination. If you don’t start out having these physical attributes, playing pool regularly can help you build them. As you play, your body has to adjust by stretching and balancing, and predicting where the ball will land when you hit it at certain angles.
Not only does it improve your balance, ability to stretch where you need to, and coordination, but it burns a lot of calories, too. And since Wisconsin is the land of the cheese curds, who couldn’t benefit from burning some extra calories? The best part: playing pool doesn’t feel like exercise or a way to build your balance or coordination while you’re in it, it just feels fun!
Playing pool will give your body a good workout, there’s no denying that. Whether you’ve played before or you’ve watched others play, it’s easy to tell that most of your body gets involved in the process, and that includes your brain, too. Unlike many others, this game requires focus and critical thinking, and these skills are sharpened the more that you practice them.
With this combination, playing pool actually sharpens your mind, and studies have even shown that it helps to slow aging. There are few other games that are fun to play and help keep you young, too! We’ve already talked about how it helps your hand-eye coordination, but it kind of falls into both categories, and it’s worth mentioning again. Sharpening this skill helps with many other normal daily life activities.
Playing pool also requires a bit of patience, which again translates into other activities in life. Patience is not something that comes easily to many people, so having a fun way to develop it is a huge win in our book. In order to make the best shot, you’ll have to take your time, pause, and think about what move to make. You’ll also have to wait while the other players go through the same process. Patience is an incredibly valuable skill to possess in this game and anywhere else, too.
