SPRING AND SUMMER FITNESS: YOUR GUIDE TO STAYING ACTIVE As the days grow longer, spring and summer provide the perfect opportunity to refresh your fitness routine. Whether you’re exercising outdoors or finding ways to stay active indoors, these expert tips will help you maintain your health and energy all season long. Make the Most of the Season Take advantage of the warmer months by incorporating these fun and effective workouts: Walking or Running: Enjoy a scenic cardio session in your neighborhood or local parks or on trails. Swimming: A full-body, lowimpact workout that strengthens muscles while keeping you cool. Cycling: A great way to improve cardiovascular health while exploring new routes. Body Weight Exercises: Perform squats, lunges, push-ups, and planks in your backyard or at a park. Outdoor Yoga: Practice stretching or mindfulness exercises in a peaceful setting. Dress for the Season Choosing the right workout attire can make a significant difference in staying comfortable and safe: Wear lightweight, moisturewicking fabrics to keep cool and dry. Apply sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher if exercising outdoors. Wear a hat and sunglasses to protect your face and eyes from the sun. Opt for light-colored clothing to stay comfortable in warmer temperatures. Listen to Your Body Exercising in warmer weather can be challenging, so pay attention to warning signs like dizziness, nausea, or extreme fatigue. If you experience these symptoms, stop, hydrate, and take a break. Modify your workout intensity to match your comfort level.
