Summer is that time of the year when many people strive towards having a perfect “beach body”, but there are so many better goals worth reaching. Here are five fun attainable goals that you can use to stay motivated without trying to reach unrealistic beauty standards.
Daily Walks
Take advantage of long and warm summer days by going for a relaxing walk once the sun is down. This is a great way to get some fresh air and relax after a long day indoors.
Outdoor Workouts
Summer is a great time to embrace outdoor fitness classes and workouts, but keep in mind it’s best to head out early in the morning or late in the evening to avoid the heat.
Summer Races
If running happens to be your outdoor workout of choice, consider looking for 5K and 10K events in your local community and try to win a medal for all your hard work.
New Water Sports
Summer is a better time than ever to try new water sports that provide a great full-body workout. If you’ve already mastered swimming, paddleboarding, kayaking, or surfing are some of the best options on the market.
Active Vacation
Put your vacation to some good use and choose a destination where you can stay as active as possible. From doing water sports to hiking and biking, there are many ways to keep your vacation fitness-oriented.
