What muscles are used in freezby?

There are many muscles used when playing Frisbee. It all depends on what is happening. For example, if there is a lot of running involved, then your leg muscles, both the calf and thigh muscles, along with heart and lung muscles. When throwing the Frisbee, you will use most arm muscles, because of the motions you make with your elbow. Then you would use your abdomen muscles when twisting your body around to throw the disk. It is a good work out if there is much distance between the players, to increase the running and throwing done in the game. Hope this helps and have fun!
