Bounce back into shape this spring

No Comments
9 years ago

Winter is on its way out and it’s time to start toning those arms and flattening those abs! The arrival of spring is the perfect time to kickstart yourself into shape, and with tons of outdoor activities to choose from, you shouldn’t have a problem finding the right fitness motivator for you. Here are some easy and fun recreational activities that tone muscles, strengthen immune health and don’t require a membership.

Tennis
Harvard University professor Dr. Ralph Paffenbarger once conducted a study that analyzed more than 10,000 people over a span of 20 years who played tennis three hours a week. His primary finding from his research was that just three hours of tennis per week will cut your risk of death, from any cause, in half. Sounds like a small price to pay for doubling your chances of life longevity. The start and stop quick aerobic motions of tennis help increase your heart rate and burn calories while also working out muscles in your arms, chest and legs. The hand-eye coordination and game strategy  involved will also stimulate your brain. Try getting that from the treadmill.

Beach volleyball
While there’s always indoor volleyball for those not near the beach, serving up shots and spiking balls on the sand is a great outdoor exercise that won’t sacrifice leisure. According to researchers at Harvard Medical School, participating in just 30 minutes of beach volleyball can burn more than 350 calories for a185-pound person. Beach volleyball is also a combination of improving balance, toning muscles and enhancing your reflexes. Plus, it’s not a bad way to work on that post-winter sun tan.

Rollerblading
It’s time to ditch the stationary treadmill and strap on the helmet and kneepads! Rollerblading is a great way to move around outside while getting your workout on. According to the Mayo Clinic, one hour rollerblading for an 160-pound person will burn a whopping 550 calories, which is more than jogging or swimming. Rollerblading can increase flexibility and stamina. Also, it puts less stress on your knees and other joints so you won’t be as sore the next day.

Ultimate frisbee
This is a game that’s about as carefree as you can get, but it still provides good exercise. The rules of ultimate frisbee are similar to football, except no one gets tackled and winning isn’t the main objective. Just 30 minutes of running around tossing a frisbee with your friends can burn 150 calories, not to mention it’s a perfect way to spend a splendid spring day outside.
