- You can only take so much of the treadmill before it becomes a redundant task that you loathe. Take it outside and change up your cardio workouts. Your body will be confused by the change and that benefit will increase your results.
- Fresh air. As much as your local gym tries to move the air around and make it smell good, nothing beats Mother Nature and her nature wind machine. Get some good air in those lungs.
- Being in the sun helps to generate Vitamin D. Be smart about it but don’t be afraid to get out in the sun minus the chemically laden sun screen. Our bodies need Vitamin D and the long winter has depleted that from us.
- Socialize. Being at the park with other parents or running down a trail with other fitness enthusiasts always feels good. We are all improving our lives together. Plus a little friendly competition is always healthy.
- Gyms are boring. How many curls and lunges can you do while staring at yourself in the mirror? Get outside and find something heavy to lift. Run a few sprints. Find a park and do some pull-ups. Functional fitness over vanity fitness.
