Best Fall Exercises to Keep You Active All Season Long
Summer might be gone, but the cooler fall temperatures mean you can take up new activities to exercise. Keeping healthy will ensure you stay at the optimum weight and help your immune system thrive during cold and flu season.
So, what exercises should you be doing in fall?
– Walk
Take a walk by yourself and clear your head, or take the kids along and you’ll have no excuse about not exercising. It can be a fun family activity where you can spot birds and other animals along your way. Head to the park, walk your neighborhood, or if the weather is unpleasant, head to the mall and window-shop while you exercise.
– Bike
Before the snow gets in the way, take to the bike trails or park for a fun bike ride. There’s nothing more beautiful than those colorful leaves all around! Since the sun is less brutal, it won’t even feel like exercise.
– Hike
Hiking on inclines makes for a more challenging way to exercise while having fun. Take along a healthy snack or lunch and stop for a picnic before heading back home for a great weekend exercise with the people you love.
– Run
If the summer sun was too much to bear running outside, now’s your chance. The cooler weather makes it easy to run without breaking a sweat. Don’t miss out or the snow will soon be here and then you’ll have to wait for the spring thaw!
– Basketball
Whether you have your own hoop or head to the basketball courts at the park, this sport really has you on your toes. There’s so much action plus it’s fun, making it just the right exercise for those that don’t want it to feel like exercise.
– Try something new
Fall can feel a bit off for some people because it means winter will soon be here. Instead of letting those feelings throw off your mood, try something new with your exercises. It might be the perfect time to join that dance class at the gym or seek out a new fitness activity.
And of course, if you need motivation, one of the best things you can do to exercise in the fall is get a personal trainer who will keep you going.
