There are so many great habits that you can get into, and some that are not so great. Among the best are usually ones that serve a greater purpose, whether it be towards your health, fitness, or overall well-being. This brings us to one of our favorite habits to discuss: bike riding. Here’s why riding a bike is one of the best habits things you can do for your well-being.

It’s An Excellent Workout

For starters, bike riding is a great way to stay in shape. It works out your legs to an excruciating degree, especially if you happen to be riding up many hills. Many people incorporate riding a bike into their daily lives (such as biking to work) and report feeling healthier and fitter as a result.

It’s Pretty Darn Fun

But while some physical activities aren’t very fun, riding a bike is quite the opposite. From the time when you were a kid, you likely rode a bike and enjoyed every second of it. Thankfully, the child in you is still there and enjoys every moment of your bike ride even when you’re an adult.

Exploration

Finally, another great reason that biking is a great thing to do is that you get to explore all kinds of interesting parts of your town. It’s unique in that it’s much faster than walking, but also much smaller than a car, allowing you access to all kinds of fun nature trails.

While getting fit does require a serious commitment, this doesn’t mean that you can’t have fun while doing it. Here are some activities that will help you improve your fitness, all while making friends and having fun.

Play Tennis

While tennis takes a lot of stamina, flexibility, and endurance, it is also an inherently social game. After all, you always require a partner or two to play. Consider grabbing a friend and heading to a local tennis court to play. All you’ll need to get started is a tennis racket, balls, and some comfortable shoes.

Join a Running or Walking Club

Doing cardio on your own can be tedious especially, because movements such as running, cycling, and swimming can feel so monotonous. By joining a running or walking group, you can get in the steps you need while enjoying some fresh air and good conversation.

Join a Dance Class

If you love music or dancing at parties, then why not make it part of your exercise routine? Dancing is an excellent way to keep fit while joining a dance class enables you to meet a whole group of new friends. From hip-hop to waltz, tango, and cha-cha, there are plenty of dance styles to suit all tastes.

If you are single and fitness is a huge part of your life then you want to make sure that you are meeting like-minded people to date. Enough with the dinner and bar dates, start doing some fun sporty activities instead to see how strong your partner is, and if they can keep up with you. Here are some fun activity dates for you to try on your first date.

Trapeze Class

Sign up for a 90-minute beginner trapeze class and start swinging and spinning around a bar in the air with the greatest of ease. Even if you have never done it before an instructor will work with your ability level and you will learn to trust each other and use each other for support.

Rock Climbing

Using all your upper body muscles in this activity you will get to see your date’s skills (or not) as you work your way up a wall. It will get you both out of your comfort zone and make you use your puzzle-solving skills to move from handhold to handhold without falling off the wall. The best part is rappelling down after you reached the top.

Trampolining

A date at a trampoline park shows you aren’t taking yourselves too seriously, as you get to increase your endorphins whilst jumping up and down and laughing at yourselves. You also get to show off your gymnastic skills and move lymphatic fluid through your body. The lymphatic system works with the circulatory system to flush excess fluid and dead blood cells from tissues. So not only are you having a really fun date you are releasing some toxins along the way.

Burning 100 calories may not seem like a lot, but it can be a significant portion of your daily energy expenditure, especially if you’re trying to get in better shape. Here are three ways to burn 100 calories quickly.

Go For a Swim

Swimming is a great way to burn calories and get a full-body workout. Depending on your weight and intensity level, you can burn around 100 calories in about 15-20 minutes of swimming. Swimming is also a low-impact activity, making it easier on your joints compared to high-impact exercises like running.

Do Some Yard Work

If you have a yard that needs tending to, doing some yard work can be a great way to burn 100 calories quickly. Depending on the type of work you’re doing and your intensity level, you can burn around 100 calories in about 30-45 minutes of yard work. Plus, you’ll get the added benefit of improving the appearance of your outdoor space.

Take a Dance Class

If you love to dance and want to have fun while burning calories, a dance class might be the perfect option for you. Depending on the style of dance and your intensity level, you can burn around 100 calories in a 30-minute dance class. Plus, dance classes are a great way to socialize and boost your mood.

Going to the gym is one of those things that we’ll probably have a love-hate relationship with for the rest of our lives. Some days, we look forward to going and getting in a workout from the moment we wake up, but other days, we really need to drag our feet to get there. In our opinion, working out needs to be fun for us to feel motivated, so on the days when the gym feels like the last place we want to be, it can be helpful to mix it up by exercising in a different environment. Here are some of our favorite gym alternatives.

Hiking

We love hiking because it’s a great way to get some exercise that also allows us to spend time outdoors. There are countless benefits to both mental and physical health that can come from spending time in nature, so find a trail near you and head out to enjoy improved cardiovascular health, better balance, and decreased stress.

The Playground

This one only really applies if you have kids, but if you do, you’re probably already aware of just how much running around a visit to the playground can entail. Rather than just sit on the side and observe, start a game of tag, push them on the swings, or try the monkey bars yourself! You’ll be surprised how quickly you break a sweat.

Roller Rink

When was the last time you went roller skating? It’s a great way to get in some cardio, but more than anything, it’s fun! Make a night of it and organize a group outing with friends and family. You’ll enjoy yourself so much that you won’t even realize you’re exercising.

If you’re someone who has trouble getting yourself to work out because you don’t find it fun, you’re not alone. Luckily, working out doesn’t just have to look like jogging or using gym equipment—there’s plenty of fitness you can do that will let you use your creativity and that’s designed to be fun with the added benefit of a workout. Here are some things to try!

Take a Dance Class

There are many, many different types of dancing to choose from and all of them will help build muscle tone, flexibility, and heart health. You can choose from everything from ballet, to pole dancing, to vogueing! There are lots of options that will let you express your unique self and introduce you to a group of people with common interests.

Skating

Skating is also a great thing to learn because again, there are lots of ways you can use it depending on your particular area of interest. There’s speed skating if you like to go fast, park skating if you like adrenaline and going down slides, dance skating or longboarding if you like to twirl, and roller derby if you want to let out your aggression! Again, the other perk is that there’s an awesome skating community you can hang out with.

Hybrid Sports

Some sports combine dance, self-expression, and technical skills! For example, artistic gymnastics involves beautiful routines as well as tumbling, while synchronized swimming requires being very comfortable in the water and great teamwork to create something beautiful. There are also martial arts that combine combat skills and dance!
