Fall Outdoor Activities That Burn Fat Fast
If you’re gearing
up to continue on or start with a weight loss program this fall, it’s important
that you include plenty of variety in your workout program so that you’re
constantly looking forward to each workout as it comes.
Many people make
the mistake of going into the gym and performing the same workout over and over
again which eventually causes them to fall off the bandwagon as they just
cannot stand the thought of yet another same old session.
Switching it up and
taking your workouts outside for a change of pace every once in a while is a
great way to boost your fitness level, cure boredom, and burn fat.
Let’s have a quick
peak at some of the top fat burning activities that you can do this fall.
Rollerblading
The first activity
to consider is taking a rollerblade through the park or any trails around your
area. Rollerblading, especially on a
hilly trail is one of the best ways to work the quads, glutes, and hamstrings,
and burn calories incredibly quickly.
What’s more is that
unless you’re very experienced with this activity, it’ll also prove to be a
great core workout as well as the abs will constantly be called into play to
keep you balanced.
Hiking
With the cooler
fall weather, now’s a great time to get out and go hiking. You won’t have to fight the summer heat for a
longer session and will be able to enjoy the changing fall scenery.
A hike for 2-3
hours could easily burn up to 1500 calories if you’re on a varied terrain, so
this is the perfect weekend getaway to help boost your fitness, kill stress,
and get away from it all.
Trail Running
Trail running is
the next excellent outdoor activity to consider. Again, running in the summer heat can be
quite problematic for many people but as the weather turns slightly cooler in
the fall, it’s the perfect chance to get outdoors.
Just be sure if you
are going to go trail running you wear a good pair of supportive footwear as it
is much easier to roll an ankle when you’re not on flat ground.
Raking Leaves
Finally, don’t ever
overlook raking leaves as a fall activity to burn calories and get out of the
gym. While you may not exactly consider
this a ‘fun activity’ as it’s more of a chore, it’s still going to burn plenty
of calories nevertheless.
If you really don’t
feel like hitting the gym on any given day but have a yard full of leaves to
rake up, skip it and do that instead.
Not only will you give you cardiovascular system a workout, your entire
upper body will be feeling it.
So there you have a
few great fall suggestions to get your calorie burn up while getting out of the
gym. It’s really quite easy to get fit
without regular workout sessions if you put a little creativity into it and
think of alternative exercises that you would enjoy.
