Oh SUMMER, how I love thee! It is my favorite time of year. The best part? Getting outside. If you are bored with your winter exercise routine, now is the time to change it up!
Try a few of these:
1. Hit the trails. No matter where you live, there is a park or a good place to walk nearby. Changing the scenery makes old boring walking or jogging new again!
2. Try canoeing or kayaking. There are great day trips around if you don't have your own equipment. It's fun and it works different muscles. You will feel your arms, back and abs in short order.
3. Join a race. Almost all "races" out there have walking options. The bonus: giving to a great cause.
4. Golf- without the cart!
5. Find a park with multiple things to do and "cross train." My favorite spot has a dam for stair work, trails for walking and a beach for walking in the water, swimming or just cooling off after. Bonus: I see deer almost every time I go!
6. Garden. 'nough said. It is hard work!
7. Pick up or league volleyball. A great way to get some exercise and hang out with friends.
8. Pedal an old railway. Rails to Trails are great places to bike free of the obstacle of cars and the danger that goes with it.
There are a million great ways to enjoy the outdoors. Pick one (or 8!) and enjoy yourself. Just don't forget the safety equipment and the sunscreen!
