]]>The Elliptical Trainer
If you’re looking for a lower-impact exercise that you can do within your gym, then the elliptical trainer is for you. This machine mimics the motion of running and is less harsh on your joints, thereby making it less painful yet still effective.
Cycling
While cycling outdoors is an enjoyable activity that you can do alone or as part of a club, you can also cycle at the gym. By joining a cycle or spinning class, you’ll enjoy a high-impact workout and receive an opportunity to meet like-minded individuals.
Swimming
Not only is this an enjoyable pastime on vacation, but a holistic form of exercise as well. Swimming is a rare workout that actually exercises your entire body.

]]>Don’t Push Yourself
When you’re first starting out, it’s tempting to try to give it your all and see how hard you can push yourself. But that’s a really difficult practice to stick with and you may find yourself dreading the soreness and shortness of breath. Instead, start by going easy and just getting used to the motion. One way to do this is to try to take short, quick steps rather than long strides. This will help you get lighter on your feet and get your body used to the necessary motions.
Don’t Overdo It
You also don’t need to overdo your endurance. Rather than running straight for as long as you can, try switching between 30 seconds of running and a minute of walking. Then increase your running time by 30 seconds as you get more comfortable. This is one of the ways marathon runners work on their endurance.
Combine it With Catharsis
Running is a great time for mental self-care because it’s a very individual sport. That might mean listening to music or a podcast that brings you joy, doing meditation, or even mentally processing any big life events. It’s also a healthy way to blow off steam!

Vor kurzem habe ich nämlich die Möglichkeit bekommen mal eine (für mich) ganz neue Laufschuhmarke an den Füßen zu testen. Genau genommen geht es hier um den Clifton 6 von HOKA 
Die dicke Sohle ist mir dabei direkt ins Auge gesprungen. Allerdings ist er ziemlich leicht am Fuß und auch beim laufen fühlte er sich bisher super an

Treadmill
There’s actually no clear answer to this question; it all depends on your preferences. Treadmill running is better for beginners and multitaskers who are looking for a relaxing workout. It’s also better for your joints than running outside because you are running on a flat surface compared to running with inclines. You can even pass the time by watching an episode of your favorite show, and that’s always a plus.
So today I didn’t get to the gym my middle one was still poorly so I stayed at home and missed out on my much loved Wednesday RPM class and bodypump. I have literally wasted the day eating crap food. 5 slices of toast 2 ice creams 3 chocolate bars Running Outside
On the other hand, being on a treadmill for a while will make you feel like you’re stuck in one place. You’ll never feel this way when running outside because you can pick a different route every day. Running outside can be more challenging due to the weather, temperature, and terrain. While running outside you can get in touch with nature and enjoy your surroundings.

I can’t wait with days this beautiful

This rocky 1.4 mile-long trail is the best Mount Rainier National Park has to offer. It terminates at the Mt. Fremont fire lookout, so you could enjoy scenic view once the run is over.
