Get your ass outside honey!
Don't let a day off of work or school be your excuse to skip exercising today. Since you're likely planning to spend time outside at a barbecue or the beach to enjoy the end of summer weather anyway, take your workout outside too! I love when Don has my sisters and I train outdoors, even though the workouts are hard AF. LOL!
BIKE TO THE BEACH
If you're already going to the beach, incorporate exercise into your day by biking there instead of driving. You'll be happy when you don't have to deal with the crazy parking lot too!
NEIGHBORHOOD HILL SPRINTS
Pick a steep hill in your neighborhood and lunge your way up to the top and sprint to the bottom. Do this set 10 times, or more if you're feeling up to it, to build strength and get your heart rate up! If you don't live near any hills you can still do the same circuit without an incline. Just run down you street in one direction and lunge going back in the other. Make sure to keep your front knee directly over your ankle when you're in the lunge position.
SWIMMING POOL EXERCISES
Take a break from floating on a raft to do a workout routine in your pool. Besides swimming laps, you can also tread water or do tricep dips off of the pool ledge or stairs. Make sure to keep your elbows at a 90 degree angle!
TAKE YOUR YOGA PRACTICE TO THE MOUNTAINS
Hiking with your friends (or alone!) is one of the most fun ways to workout outside. Take a few minutes at the top to stretch your muscles and calm your mind by doing a few yoga poses. Downward dog will feel great on your hamstrings after a long hike! To get into this position, place your hands and feet a few feet apart and hip distance then stick your ass to the sky. LOL.
BACKYARD CIRCUIT TRAINING
Set up a circuit training course in your backyard or on a tennis court. Depending on what equipment you have at home, you create different statios like jump roping, squats and weight training. Try this shoulder exercise (pictured) by bending your elbows to your chest with weights in your hands. Drop one arm down toward your side until your elbow meets your waist and then bring back up. Repeat on the other side to complete one rep.
