Racquetball is an ideal combination of exercise and enjoyment. It provides great workout by helping increase stamina, lower body fat level, improve muscle tone and burn about 700 calories from the body. Racquetball has become one of the most strenuous cardiovascular workouts available at present.
A former squash and tennis teacher, Joe Sobek, invented racquetball in 1950, and today is extremely popular throughout North America. It is a sport that can be enjoyed in all weather. At the same time it is a good exercise, as it requires very good hand eye coordination and a knowledge of angles and spin techniques. Racquetball has also become popular amongst women because it is easy to learn.
