Summer is finally here, and with it comes the opportunity to get off of the treadmill or stationary bike and into the great outdoors.\u00a0 The world is your playground, and the variety of fun and beneficial workouts is practically endless.\u00a0 So if you\u2019re ready to head out, these tips and equipment from Buydig.com will help you make the most of your outdoor workouts this summer.<\/p>\n

Walking
\n<\/strong>One of the easiest and least expensive ways to get fit, walking is the perfect way to trim your waistline and improve your health. Walking briskly, about 4mph, for 30 minutes 5 days a week will help maintain a healthy weight, prevent or manage heart disease, high blood pressure and type 2 diabetes, strengthen your bones and muscles, improve your mood, and improve your balance and coordination.\u00a0 If you\u2019re trying to lose weight, try walking at that pace for 60 minutes a day.\u00a0\u00a0 The only equipment needed for this activity is a good pair of athletic shoes with the proper arch support, and comfortable clothes appropriate for the weather.<\/p>\n

Jogging\/Running
\n<\/strong>Jogging burns more calories than walking.\u00a0 For example, a 150-pound woman can burn 306 calories running for 30 minutes at 5 mph.\u00a0 That\u2019s equivalent to a 12-minute mile. Running is great for your heart and lungs, but it does put more stress on your knees, ankles and hips.\u00a0 If you are a beginner, it is important to start slowly and increase your time or distance by 10% each week. \u00a0The only gear you really need for this activity is a good pair of running shoes with good support, and for women, a quality sports bra.<\/p>\n

Cycling
\n<\/strong>Millions of people have already found out that bicycling is an excellent cardiovascular exercise.\u00a0 But did you know it\u2019s even more than that?\u00a0 Cycling is also a fantastic opportunity for you to explore your community, and a great form of transportation.\u00a0 More and more people use their bikes to commute to work every year.\u00a0 Cycling uses different muscles than walking and jogging, such as the quadriceps, and it does require a few more pieces of equipment to ride safely.\u00a0 You will need a properly fitted bike, a helmet and gloves with a little palm padding. You can find several accessories such as headlights, taillights, bike computers with GPS and heart rate tracking, U-locks and trunk bike racks at Buydig.com.<\/p>\n

Swimming
\n<\/strong>This activity works to tone your arms and legs and is a great cardiovascular workout.\u00a0 Swimming is perfect for people with joint problems because it is very easy on the joints.\u00a0 It also increases stamina, relieves stress and helps to fight off high blood pressure and diabetes.\u00a0 As long as you have access to a pool, lake, pond or ocean, the only other equipment you will need is a swimsuit and a pair of goggles.<\/p>\n

Hiking
\n<\/strong>This is one activity that won\u2019t feel like a workout at all!\u00a0 You\u2019ll get a tremendous leg and cardiovascular workout while listening to babbling brooks and singing birds alone or with family and friends.\u00a0 A 150-pound woman can burn over 200 calories on a 30-minute hike. You\u2019ll need a good pair of hiking boots, a backpack to carry water and supplies, and possibly a walking stick or hiking pole before you hit the trails.<\/p>\n

Kayaking
\n<\/strong>Kayaking is a great cardiovascular workout that develops upper-body strength, endurance, flexibility, and balance.\u00a0 It also focuses on the muscles of the center of your body, back and stomach. \u00a0Kayaking is a fun way to work out on the water, but you will need a few items to participate safely. You will need a kayak, a life vest or other form of personal floatation device, and throw ropes.<\/p>\n
