Read my latest insights on fitness, my views on well-being and learn from my experience health in the Stacked Fitness Blog
Many people like the idea of being fit, but what they don't really like is going to the gym. If you are one of them, we have great news for you. This article will help stay active without having to hit the gym.
Whether it's because you lack the time or you simply don't feel comfortable at the gym, it doesn't mean you can't lose weight, get in shape or stay fit. From simple walks to online personal training, there are numerous ways in which you can start that healthy lifestyle. Let's see what you can do both indoors and outdoors.
You might think that you need the outdoors to have a fit body. Well, it's more about your preferences. It doesn't matter where you move your body, as long as you move it and stay motivated. Let's see 5 ways that can help you incorporate a fitness plan into your daily routine.
Besides the fact that it can help you reduce stress, anxiety, and depression, walking is also a great way to clear your thoughts and burn more calories. Therefore, if you're aiming to improve your body shape, take at least 30 to 45 minutes a day to walk. It's free, convenient, and helps you relax and recharge.
If you'd like to speed up the process of losing weight or achieving a fit lifestyle, running is one of the best options out there. It will help you strengthen your bones, improve cardiovascular fitness and stay in shape at the same time. Make it a regular exercise and see your body change for the better.
Whether it's indoors or outdoors, climbing the stairs is a very efficient cardio exercise. So every time you can, choose the stairs in order to build muscle, burn calories, and improve your cardiovascular health. If you want to spice things up a little, carry some weights with you (must be the same in both hands) and get double benefits with just one exercise.
As you might already know, there are also all sorts of apps that can help you track your steps and even remind you to take the stairs instead whenever you're passing them.
Very economical and environmentally friendly, bike riding is a great way to achieve your fitness goals. This very efficient workout can help you with bone density, muscle strength, cardiovascular health, and even cholesterol.
It's time for you to take a ride on that old bike you haven't used in a while. And if you find a partner to go with you, it can be even more fun.
If you have the space to do it inside your house, it's great, but if you don't, go outside (maybe in a park or even in the backyard, wherever you feel most comfortable) and take your jump rope with you.
This type of exercise can be really fun, and it is a very efficient way in which you can burn considerable calories. You can start off by doing 50 jump ropes, slowly increasing the number until it becomes an everyday exercise routine.
Now that we have explored outdoor options, let's see what we can do inside the comfort of our own homes in order to achieve that fit body and healthy lifestyle.
All you need to get started is a positive attitude and a yoga mat (or even a soft floor). If you're new to this, start with beginner poses that you can find all over the internet. Yoga can significantly help you improve your day, especially when it's done in the morning.
Among the benefits of this physical activity, you can obtain:
● blood circulation improvement;
● muscles and joints stretching;
● pain and stiffness relief;
● better flexibility;
● injury prevention;
● higher muscle tone;
● stress reduction.
Another great way to live a healthy lifestyle and keep that fit body is by dancing your heart out. Grab the playlist that makes you move the most and dance away the worries of the day. The more you move your body, the more you'll benefit from this physical activity, so make sure you are comfortable and ready to have some fun. To get the most out of it, you can also look online for guided dancing workouts.
Without much equipment, bodyweight exercises can be done almost anywhere. By using only the weight of your own body, you can build strength and endurance.
Bodyweight exercises include sit-ups, crunches, push-ups, pull-ups, lunges, squats, and planks.
Depending on your possibilities, you can do it inside or outside, it doesn't really matter, as long as you practice this physical activity as often as possible. Swimming can easily get you in shape, while reducing your stress levels, increasing the density of your bones, and improving your cardiovascular health.
It's easy to obtain a healthy weight when you're moving daily, but it's easier when there's someone that can keep you motivated and tell you what you need to do to achieve the fitness level that you want. And the good news is that personal training can be done from the comfort of your own house, without having to go to the gym.
