Exercise As Nature Intended – Ajit Patel UK
One of the most
rewarding ways to workout is to
exercise in the great outdoors. While
providing an unlimited source of fresh air, and a healthy boost of Vitamin D from the sun, studies show
that people experience
more pleasure and less tension and fatigue when exercising with nature
rather than indoors. But what if you hate jogging or are bored by walking?
Here are some ideas for enjoying the natural
environment while getting your workout fix.
Get on your Bike Gym-bound exercise
bikes might track your mileage and calories
but it is more inspiring to cycle through beautiful countryside or your local park
with a friend, rather than cycling indoors. No one to cycle
with? Team up with others in your area.
Time for a Dip You may need to be
brave when the weather
is cold, but outdoor swimming is truly invigorating. Find outdoor venues and events
in your area.
Head to the Beach If you’re lucky
enough to live near the sea, why not work out on the beach?
Whether it’s a jog across the sand or a game of cricket
or beach volleyball, the beach is a great place to exercise
and have fun.
Take a Hike Rather than
pounding the treadmill,
get fit and have fun in the fresh air with a refreshing hill walk.
Pick a route with lots of ups and downs for best benefits.
Find new landscapes to explore.
Pick a Team If you prefer to
exercise with others, try an outdoor team sport
such as football, rounders or netball to help you get fit and make new friends.
Find a welcome from a sports team or club in your area.
