Lifestyle Discussion

Staying active and motivated during the summer months requires embracing the season and taking advantage of outdoor activities and opportunities for movement. Look for fun and enjoyable ways to stay active outdoors, such as swimming, hiking, biking, or playing sports like beach volleyball or frisbee. Take advantage of longer daylight hours by scheduling outdoor workouts in the morning or evening when temperatures are cooler. Stay hydrated and protect yourself from the sun by wearing sunscreen, a hat, and lightweight, breathable clothing. Set specific fitness goals or challenges for the summer months, whether it's completing a certain number of hikes or bike rides, training for a summer race or event, or mastering a new outdoor activity or sport. Lastly, prioritize balance and self-care by listening to your body, taking rest days when needed, and enjoying the season with friends and family while staying active and healthy.
