Anyways, I recently committed to a goal that I am super excited about, and it is as follows - this summer, I will do all of my workouts outdoors, with the exception of yoga classes. The sun gets my going every morning, and I can't think of a better way to celebrate than taking advantage of the summer weather.
Darwin plans on sleeping in this summer, what a bum.
These are the stairs, oh man what a good workout they are.
After some jumping jacks, too many different kinds of push ups, some ab work, and some more push ups, the clouds parted and the sun beamed through.
And that is when I decided it was time to debut the paddle boards.
Off to visit the lighthouse!
The cool thing about the harbor is that it can be calm one minute, and ridiculously choppy the next. We sat down when it got too rough, mainly because falling in the 50 degree water wasn't part of the plan. As it gets warmer here, the water will follow suit...soon wetsuits won't be necessary and swimming can be part of the workout!
I like to face backwards and take pictures while trying to not drop my Ipod touch in the water...thank god I do yoga, hello balance!
Relaxing and enjoying the view as we cruised in.
Paddleboarding is an amazing core and arm workout, and I will take that over being stuck in a gym any day! Day one of working out outside was most definitely a success!
What's your favorite outdoor activity?
