If you love the great outdoors, you probably enjoy running and working out outside, as well. Creating a Bootcamp is a great way to include people who love to spend every free second outside in your fitness routine. Follow these steps and get it done!

Step 1: Enroll a Few Friends

There’s no slacking off when someone is watching. So gather together a few people because they will push you to work harder. Since it’s no longer just about you, being lazy is not an option anymore. This will keep you from bailing on your workout buddies.

Step 2: Make a Schedule 

You have to pick a time that’s in the morning or evening when it’s cooler outside since you will warm up. Make a good plan, stay properly hydrated, and enjoy.

Step 3: Find a Location

Everyone would pick a park, but playgrounds are actually a great idea, as well. All the bars, stairs, and hills are great obstacles for outdoor training.

Step 4: Get Equipment

You will need just a few simple things as jump ropes, light hand weights, balls, and of course—good energy.

According to The United States Centers for Disease Control, adults should get at least 150 minutes of combined physical activity every week in order to maintain optimal health. The good news is that you don’t really need the gym or even a treadmill. You can get active in many fun ways, and the easiest way to do it is to increase the time you spend walking.

For an average walker, 150 minutes of walking per week equals walking two miles every day for five days, and this is definitely doable. 

If you decide to start walking more, make sure you have the right equipment. And when we say equipment, we mean a good pair of walking or running shoes and that’s it. Wear any clothes you feel comfortable in and just get out when it’s convenient for you. Of course, you can use the walking time to run errands or walk to and from work if that fits in your schedule. As long as you get your 2 miles per day, it doesn’t really matter how and when you do it.

For many of us, summer is the best season out there because of the beautiful weather, adventures in nature, evenings at the beach, and great parties. But, summer is also the perfect season to engage in outdoor sports and activities. 

Besides bringing great health benefits, this group of sports also provides a lot of fun and is perfect for letting go of all the stress accumulated during the “darker” seasons of the year. Because of that, we made a list of three summer-friendly outdoor activities that you should definitely give a try! 

Camping

Being one of the most relaxing outdoor activities you can engage in, camping provides the nature-loving enthusiast a great opportunity to rebond with nature. Also, camping can be great exercise, since it usually involves hiking and carrying weight.  

Rock Climbing

The ultimate sport for the adrenaline junkie, it offers invigorating, strenuous exercise and helps strengthen the whole body while at the same time being a great adventure.  

Mountain biking

A really demanding branch of cycling, mountain biking is a popular way to explore nature and also get an intense cardio exercise.

Golf isn’t just your dad or granddad’s sport, a lot of people enjoy this past time including children and women alike. Prominent figures like Tiger Woods and Justin Rose are big players in this game, and watching a game of theirs or two might encourage you to give it a shot. Whether you’re a novice or just thinking out loud about golf, these tips will make you want to try it at least once.

Why Not Try Mini-Golf?

Mini-golf and actual golf are two very different sports, but mini-golf might also be of interest to you. The big difference is that the land of a gold course reaches to almost a hundred acres while a mini-golf course merely encompasses one or two acres.

Find the Right Club

How do you find the right golf club? First things first, measure your height and make sure that the club matches it. Also consider grip thickness, the length of the club, and the head of the club. These aspects are quite technical, so it would be great to ask a professional or even one of the assistants at the golf course.

Practice Your Stance

If you’ve already played sports, try out the “athletic position.” This is when your knees are slightly bent, allowing your upper body to bend forward slightly using your hips. This position can help you hit the golf ball as far as you can! Experiment with different stances according to what makes you feel most comfortable.

Did you know that spending time in nature can improve your mental and physical health?

The University of Exeter in England conducted a study that examined the effects that spending time in nature has on health. After interviewing over 19,000 people and asking them how much time they are spending in nature, they concluded that people who answered with two hours or more per week feel better both physically and mentally better.

“It’s well known that getting outdoors in nature can be good for people’s health and wellbeing, but until now we’ve not been able to say how much is enough,” said the study leader, Dr. Mat White. “The majority of nature visits in this research took place within just two miles of home so even visiting local urban greenspaces seems to be a good thing. Two hours a week is hopefully a realistic target for many people, especially given that it can be spread over an entire week to get the benefit.”

Do you get you spend two hours per week in nature?
