You Need Paintball At this Time

So, you’ve been stranded in your house for a few months now. We’re starting to open up around the country, and everyone is ready to go back to a normal life. It’s not quite the same out there, but we’re slowly starting to see some normal things going on. As the weather is finally warming up for summer, paintball is a wonderful way to get outside, get exercise, and relieve some stress by shooting paintballs. 

Whether you have been working from home or not, paintball can give you the stress relief you need during this time. Being stuck in the house can give many people anxiety due to the fact that the outside world is very limited when it comes to activities. The wilderness is still calling, and so are we!

Playing Paintball Can Offer Some Surprising Health Benefits

Posted by & filed under Paintball Tips.

Paintball PlayerYou already know that paintball is a fun and exciting activity you can enjoy with a group of friends, but did you know that playing paintball can also offer some notable health benefits? Here are just a few examples of the many ways playing paintball can improve your health.

Enjoy a Full-Body Workout

If you play paintball, you can skip the gym for the day. All the crawling, diving, sprinting and dodging (while carrying your gear) works just about every muscle in your body.

Boost Endurance

Spend a few hours on the paintball field, and you’ll get a great cardiovascular workout that enhances your endurance levels.

Relieve Stress

The benefits of playing paintball aren’t just physical. It’s also good for your mental health! A rousing game of paintball will get your mind off things that might be keeping you up at night and provide a welcome boost of endorphins. After all, there’s no time to think about the stress of day-to-day life when you’re dodging fire from the opposing team.

Get Outdoors

Getting outside during a paintball game has a variety of benefits as well. Spending more time outdoors can improve your focus, mood and even promote a healthy immune system.

Build Self-Confidence

Your self-confidence is fundamental to your overall well-being. Playing paintball will foster your competitive spirit and leadership skills, making you feel good about your ability to contribute to a dedicated team effort.

Ever Wonder What Paintballs Are Made Of?

Posted by & filed under Paintball Gear.

PaintballsYou’re not alone. You may have shot many thousands of paintballs over the years, but do you really know what these paint-filled projectiles made of?

First of all, rest assured that you’re always getting hit with materials that are completely non-toxic and biodegradable. If you want a closer look into the construction of a paintball, read on.

Paintballs consist of two parts:

The Shell

The shell is the outer portion that breaks apart when your paintball makes impact with a surface – ideally a member of the opposing team. The shell is almost always made of gelatin, and it functions similarly to a supplement capsule. It contains the fill, but will break upon heavy impact. It’s important to store your paintballs properly, because the gelatin can harden in the sun or when exposed to air for a long time. When the gelatin gets too hard, you won’t get that satisfying splat when you make contact with an opponent.

The Fill

The fill consists of dye and solvent that marks your opponent once the shell breaks apart. The contents of the fill vary, but usually consist of water-soluble dyes contained within polyethylene glycol. Some cheaper variants are made with an oil base, but these are harder to wash out of clothing and not as environmentally friendly.

At Battle Creek Paintball, you can enjoy playing fast-paced games across 15 acres of woodlands, hills and fields that pose unique tactical challenges for beginners and veterans alike. Just give us a call or contact us online to book your reservation today!
