| Outdoor Summer
Fun Workout
By David Gluhareff
Need
an outdoor summer fun workout? Here it comes! This workout is for
people who want to burn a lot of calories in a short amount of time
with their own outdoor circuit training. It is not a get big workout;
it is a get lean workout. Get out of the gym for a day and head
to the nearest park. You are going to workout under the sun and
take a break from the hustle and bustle of life. Make sure to take
at least a gallon of cold water and a towel for sweating. Prepare
to sweat and feel the burn. This is a workout for experienced fitness
individuals only. This is not a workout for beginners!
Here’s your routine:
- Start the workout off with a warm-up ten-minute walk.
- After the warm-up, do a total body stretch.
- Find a tree with a low strong limb and do three sets of pull-ups
(front or reverse grip) until burn.
- After the pull-ups, jog for ten minutes (60-70% MHR).
- Take a quick minute break and do three sets of push-ups until
burn.
- Now take a ten-minute walk.
- Find a park bench, steps or large rock and do three sets of
dips until burn.
- Now find a wide-open area and sprint for thirty seconds.
- After sprinting do three sets of squats (with no weight) until
burn.
- Now sprint again for another thirty seconds.
- Find a medium sized hill or incline and lunge up and down for
three burn sets.
- Now go for another ten-minute walk.
- Your final exercise should be three sets of crunches (lead
up to sky with chin and have knees and feet off the ground) until
burn.
- To end this routine, take a light five-minute cool-down walk.
This outdoor summer fun workout will burn calories, tighten your
body, and by taking in some fresh air your spirits will be lifted.
Do this type of a workout once every week or two to give your body
some variety and a bit of change. Not all progress comes from just
working out in a gym. Do not bore your body anymore! Take it outside
once in a while to liven things up a little!
