Sizzle This Summer

Have your workouts lost their passion? Are you finding it hard to stay motivated?  Summer is the perfect time to mix it up! Go outside and get out of the box! Mix up your workouts this summer and try something new! Put some fun and sizzle back into your workouts by trying some of these fun outdoor activities.

     * Take a surf lesson (I did, and it was me, a three other 12 year old boys…and I might remind you, I’m a woman in her 40’s… but I did it anyway, and had a blast!!)

     *  Kayak in the ocean or paddle boat on the lake… bond with your family and be a great example of what living a healthy lifestyle looks like.

     *  Rollerblade or bike along the beach paths – Again, bring your kids

     *  Replace one of your weekly runs with a beautiful and challenging hike

     *  Get out on your local bike paths and paseos. Plan a destination like lunch or a movie, and make a day of it.

     *  Compete in your first triathlon…and all the training will have you motivated to push yourself, and  in great shape in no time!! It’s all part of your journey, not just the finish line.

Turn off the TV, put down your lap top, and get outdoors this summer. Not only will your workouts sizzle but you will too!
