As the sun shines brightly and the temperature rises, many find themselves enticed by the idea of spending leisurely hours lounging on a blanket in a serene park. It's natural to embrace a slower pace during the summer months. However, it is important to maintain a consistent exercise routine throughout the year, ensuring the continued vitality of both body and mind. So, if you're seeking ways to stay active even when the sun is blazing, here are some valuable tips to assist you in striking the right balance between relaxation and physical activity.
Rise and shine – or sweat under the stars
This one’s for the early birds and night owls.
When the summer heat is on, timing is everything. Plan your outdoor activities during the early morning or late evening when the temperature is at its coolest. Whether it's a light jog, a leisurely bike ride or some serene yoga in the park, you'll enjoy your workouts way more in the pleasant weather. Don’t forget to put on your super soft M Life Practice Legging and the supportive Seamless Power Yoga Bra— both equally breathable and lightweight to keep you looking fresh and fabulous while you break a sweat.
Stay hydrated
A number 1 rule for summer workouts!
The heat can be intense at times, so make sure you always have a trusty water flask by your side. Sip on that H2O regularly and keep yourself cool as a cucumber.
Feeling like going the extra mile? Add some electrolyte-filled hydration tablets to your water for that extra oomph. When your body is well hydrated, you lower your chances of overheating during a workout.
Make a splash
When the sun's beating down, why not dive into some fresh aqua adventures?
Take a dip in the pool, try paddleboarding, kayaking or even get your groove on with water aerobics. These water activities will keep you refreshed while giving your body a fantastic workout, not to mention that the soothing properties of water, combined with the joy associated with water activities have a positive impact on your mental well-being, alleviating anxiety and enhancing your overall mood.
Sweat it out indoors
Okay, let's face it—some days, the summer heat is just too much to handle. But fear not, you can beat the scorching sun by bringing your workout indoors. Join a fitness class, get your zen on with some at-home yoga or follow an online workout routine. You can get a satisfying amount of physical activity without having to leave your home.
For yoga or meditation, use your 6p-free and slip-resistant linen yoga mat, while wearing your extra comfortable lotus yoga pants and branded yoga bra. Who needs AC when you're looking this cool?
