Lazy summer days can be some of the best of the year, but even in the heat of summer, it’s important to stay fit and healthy. While you’re enjoying the warmth of the summer sun, consider participating in one of these fun fitness activities.

1. Jump in the Pool

Sure, you can enjoy yourself soaking up rays beside the pool, but you’ll get a better workout if you hop right in. You don’t even need to be a great swimmer to get plenty of exercise in the water. Join your kids in a seasonal game of Marco Polo, or have fun on your own swimming laps. For lots of energetic fun in the water, invite friends over for a competitive round of beach volleyball in your local pool.

2. Do Your Own Yard Work

That beautiful lawn isn’t going to cut itself this summer. Rather than paying a service or a neighborhood teenager to clip the grass and tend your flower bed, why not do it yourself? You’ll get the best workout if you use a push mower, and you can do some body sculpting by wielding that weed whacker a couple times a week.

3. Go Cycling in the Evenings

Summertime is the perfect time to enjoy getting fit in the warmth and sunshine. In the evening, go on a bike ride and enjoy your time getting fit while burning calories and energy. Take a route through a quiet neighborhood, or bike ride along cycling paths in a local park. Don’t forget to take along your That’s It. fruit bar for a post-workout snack.

Whether you enjoy getting out in the heat of the day or prefer exercising in the early morning or at dusk, summertime offers plenty of opportunities for getting physically fit. Take these fitness ideas or come up with your own to make this summer the best summer ever for exercise and fitness.
