Are you tired of your current training? Are you sick of driving to the gym to exercise when the weather is so good? Are you stuck in a fitness routine and looking for some new ideas to keep up with your progress? The weather is warm here so why not take your fitness routine outside?
Put it down. Drive 30 minutes to the gym to walk on the treadmill and lift unreasonable loads when the weather is nice. You haven't been locked up all winter, you're tired of your fitness mindset, and you haven't seen any progress in months.
Sit down and finish. I will share with you some ideas that will take you out, make you interested in retraining, and will help you experience the level of progress you haven't seen for years. Interested? I hope you say YES!
In my 10 years in fitness games I have found that it keeps coming back to a few key points. One: You need to work on doing more than training sessions until training sessions. Two: We all need regular training (for psychological and physiological reasons). Today I'm going to talk about the second point and teach you how to get some variation in your training can help you get back on track. Check out these outdoor training ideas to add some variation to your routine:
1. Take your weight training outdoors to mix it up: During the summer months I really like to take my strength training off. I like to take care of my backyard or the local park. Training with a loved one or a dedicated group of friends is a great way to do that. Some of the best training tools for outdoor training are kettlebells (shown in the picture below - looks like a large bowling ball with a handle), clubbells (bats with difficulty), medical balls (fun throw), sled dragging (great for athletes ), weight loss training, sandbags training (nothing fancy here, just sand in the bag), and good old dumbbells.
2. Try Interval Training to Increase Fat Loss: See, the "fat" burning zone is a myth. Sure your body uses fat as a source of energy after 30 minutes of continuous exercise at a certain intensity, but sports scientists have shown us that shorter efforts for higher intensity workouts can be more effective in lowering your body fat percentage (have you ever asked, ask why runners are so thin without having to walk for 30 minutes straight ???). A great way to incorporate interval training into your summer training can be as simple as heating for 5-10 minutes and then alternating 30 seconds of lighter effort with 30 seconds of lighter effort. You can do this on your mountain bike, road bike, do a hill sprint, kayak sprint, jump roping, sprint on the track, or even do a weight loss callisthenic such as a jump jack. Enjoy!
3. Do a mini workout throughout the day: An easy way to fit in some outdoor workouts is to pick any exercise and take a short break outside. You can get out of your office and do a bunch of squats, walk lunges, push ups, climb stairs where you skip steps, or raise calves. Remember: You spend all your energy at the end of an important day - don't do it all at once.
4. Do some page work: Pages are a mess so you can also get exercise and be productive at the same time. Try piloting wood, rolling around leaves, building stone walls, digging holes (you decide what to), walking with loaded carts, carrying stuff across the yard to your head, spreading mulch around new plants you enter into a hole that had been dug before.
5. Take in some sights: Build your gym world. The commercial health club has nothing on Mother Nature. Get outdoors and take a walk in the local park, go hiking, kayaking, mountain biking, and going to the beach to run in the sand or jump in the waves. Getting outdoors can be a great way to practice fitness and add some variety to your current training program.
6. Go to the roadblocks: A cool way to add some routine to your routine is to add some calisthenic weight such as squats, push-ups, and jump jacks to your summer to increase your calorie expenditure and challenge your body. Walking on a treadmill is tedious and predictable. Stepping into the obstacles through your local park can be a lot of fun and the "mess" of walking outside can be the type you are looking for.
7. Participate in summer sports leagues: Playing sports is a great way to add some variation to your routine and have a blast doing it. There are hiking clubs, mountain biking clubs, road bike clubs, triathlon training clubs, football leagues, martial arts tournaments, basketball leagues and more. In fact, I joined the summer basketball league for the first time in a few years and I can't wait to get started. It's a great opportunity to get out, make new friends, and do some fitness activities that enhance your life.
There you have - 7 ideas to take your fitness training off and put some variety into your program. One thing to consider is to hit the gym a few days a week and do other exercises outside. Nature has given us some great options to get out of this summer and take advantage, and I am sure you will see the progress made (and you will get a blast doing it!).
