Hi! Happy 60 degree day with gusts at 40 mph to go with it!! I can say the same for yesterday but yesterday I was on a track at a college and man was that wind cold. Wanna know why I was on a track yesterday...to walk around it silly. Only I was there with a friend who needs some motivation to lose a few pounds and I was happy to help. We started with a lap around the track then we moved to alternating walking, walking lunges, pausing for ten jumping jacks, and we even added a little punching while we walked. We also went over biceps curls, shoulder press, mountain climbers, planks, burpees, etc., to do in addition to the cardio.
If you are looking to lose some weight, and don't have a gym membership, this is the perfect time to get outside and utilize all those basic workout tools. I found this website called Fit Sugar, and there's lots of good information, including some circuit exercises that you can do anywhere. A high school or college track are usually opened to the public, making it a great place to go. Hey, you could even refer to it as your "gym". Keep in mind you need to increase your heart rate to burn calories, along with some strength training, and stretching.
