Not sure what you can do during Spring? Here’s a couple of healthy suggestions while the weather’s is warming up (but not too warm!). Ready?It’s GoTime.
1. Wake Up With Morning Yoga
Start off your day with an exercise that promotes strength, awareness, and harmony in both the mind and body. Yoga is a great way to stretch and relax your muscles in the morning. On an emotional level, it is beneficial for managing stress, improving mental well-being, and reaching a more positive outlook on life.
Why you should do it this Spring: Because the exercise focuses on breathing, yoga can combat Spring allergies by improving flow through your respiratory passages. Plus it is a refreshing activity to practice in the midst of blooming nature.
2. Bike to Work
If you don’t live too far, try switching up your daily routine by riding a bike to work! Cycling is best for cardiovascular fitness, increasing flexibility and joint mobility, and improving coordination. It is also great for reducing stress and anxiety. You can’t help but feel great from the adrenaline of coasting down hills and being outdoors!
Why you should do it this Spring: In addition to being enjoyable, cycling is an eco-friendly means of transportation. Take this opportunity to save money on gas and incorporate a great workout into your daily routine.
3. Golf with a Friend
Putting on the green will be especially green during Springtime, which means that its the ideal time to go golfing.
One of the greatest benefits to playing golf is getting exercise from walking on the golf course. Walking for 18 holes is often the equivalent of walking 3-to-4 miles, which gets your heart going and blood pumping. It’s also a good chance to socialize with friends, as participants can talk to each other and enjoy each other’s company while competing.
Why you should do it this Spring: With nature in bloom, the scenery will be particularly vibrant as you stroll to the next teeing ground.
4. Jog Into The Sunset
End the day on a high note by jogging outside as the sun sets. Whether you jog in a park or around the block, jogging is incredibly effective for improving general health. It is not only great for burning off calories, but also boosts your immune system, increases healthy cholesterol levels, and improves lung function.
Why you should do it this Spring: Spring temperatures are perfectly lukewarm — it is neither sweltering hot nor unbearingly cold, making it the ideal time to go jogging.
5. Plan a Weekend Hike
Stay active during the weekend by spending time outdoors! A good cardio workout, hiking can strengthen your core, build leg muscles, and boost bone density. Planning a weekend hike provides you with a weekly chance to explore your natural surroundings and a sense of adventure.
Why you should do it this Spring: Nice views, fresh air, and the sounds and smells of nature as you explore the outdoors. And its usually free.
