The dog days of summer

It is finally here...

As summer begins we look forward to long lazy days spent relaxing on the beach, evenings hanging with friends over a barbeque's and blazing weekends tanning by the pool. The Summer season truly is great for recharging but unfortunately it can spell trouble for your fitness goals. The truth is that on a nice summer day, no one wants to be inside a hot, stuffy gym.

The solution to beating the summer fitness blah's is to perform your workouts in the park.
The beauty about working out in the park is that the environment offers variety that exercising in the gym doesn't. For example instead of using a workout bench for step-ups or dips you can perform them on a picnic table or bench. Another benefit to outdoor training is that it can be done with no equipment whatsoever.

My top 10 best exercises for outdoor training are;

1. The dynamic lunge
2. The bodyweight squat
3. The push-up
4. The dip
5. Mountain climbers
6. Burpees
7. The pike
8. Sprinter sit-ups
9. Toe touch
10. Lateral lunges

All of these exercises can be found in the DropYourFreshman15 bodyweight manual.
