]]> We love the gym, but there’s something about working out outside that makes the experience much more enjoyable. Maybe it’s the ability to people-watch as we work out or the fact that it provides us with an opportunity to spend a little time in nature, depending on where we go. It can be a bit tricky to accomplish all of our fitness goals without the convenience of weights and machines, but we don’t like to let that stop us. There are plenty of companies that now offer portable, easy-to-clean equipment perfect for use in an outdoor setting. Here are some of the pieces we like to bring with us wherever we workout:

Tangram LED Smart Rope

Jumping rope has never been safer or more fun with this light-up jump rope by Tangram. It can connect to your smartphone to track jump counts, workout times, and more! 

Lululemon Reversible Mat

Lululemon’s yoga mats are made with an antimicrobial additive to prevent them from becoming a home for mold and mildew, so they’re perfect for outdoor workouts. Beyond just yoga, they’re also great for mat pilates and bodyweight strength exercises.

Bala Bangles

Traditional weights can be heavy and awkward to carry, so we love using wrist and ankle weights whenever we want to get a good workout outdoors. Fitness brand Bala makes weights in 1 and 2 lb. options available in seven different colors!

]]> Once it starts getting hot outside, many people move their workouts to the gym. But working out outside has some health perks and it can improve your overall fitness. Are you ready to start sweating? Here are three benefits to exercising outside when it’s hot as well as ways to get the most out of hot-weather workouts.

Increases Endurance

Repeatedly exercising in the heat forces your body to adapt and cool off so you don’t overheat. Your body retains the fluid it needs to deliver oxygen to your muscles, making intense workouts feel easier. To increase your endurance, try a HIIT beach workout, which is fast and will get your heart rate up while building a sweat and allowing you time to recover.

Strengthens Your Heart

Not only does exercising in the heat improve your body’s cooling system, but it allows your heart to pump more blood with each beat, lowering your resting heart rate. To get your heart rate up, walk, run, or play pickup games with friends.

Burns More Calories

In the heat your body has to work harder, so you’re burning more calories than the same workout would in cooler weather. Just make sure you do a workout you enjoy because when it’s hot, you’ll get tired quicker and you’ll be more tempted to take a shorter workout. A great workout that will burn lots of calories is a bike ride.
