7 Things To Try Before The Summer Ends

7 Things To Try Before The Summer Ends

As summer is drawing to a close, here is your last chance to get in those summer activities.


Bike Riding

If you haven’t already, you should give bike riding a chance. Not only is bike riding a fun activity that you can do solo or with a group of friends. But it’s also a great way to burn calories and aid with weight loss. According to a study conducted by the University of Glasgow researchers found that people who cycled cut their chances of getting a heart disease or cancer in half. Additionally, bike riding is great in aiding weight loss. Going for a bike ride in the sunny summer weather is nothing short of a chefs kiss and is a great serotonin booster as well.

Yoga Outdoors

Depending on where you live it may not be sunny and warm all year long. So now is your chance to take advantage of the beautiful summer weather we’re having. One of the most relaxing and liberating activities you can try this summer is taking a yoga class outdoors. All you need is yourself, a yoga mat, and your jetsweat app. Working out outside not only helps you soak up extra vitamin D but also allows you to enjoy the great outdoors and what nature has to offer. Studies have shown that physical activity outdoors can help reduce a person’s blood pressure and heart rate. If you’re feeling extra motivated try a sunrise or sunset yoga class outdoors. 

Outdoor Movie

Whether you’re a movie fanatic or just enjoy a good movie every once in a while, outdoor movies are a great activity to try out during the summer. Whether you create your own outdoor movie with a projector in your backyard or you go to a park to watch one of your favorite movies it’s always fun to try something new. Grab your friends and all your favorite snacks for an extra fun time. 

Outdoor Picnic

This activity is perfect for anyone who enjoys the outdoors and food. If you love to get creative then a charcuterie board is a perfect picnic pleaser to bring. Whether you’re flying solo and enjoying it alone or grabbing all your friends to catch up and eat delicious food this is another great activity to try that is so easy and simple yet so peaceful and satisfying. This is another great activity that can be extra fun if you choose to do it at sunset or sunrise. 

Water Sports

If you live in an area that has a lake or any large body of water this is the perfect activity to put on your summer bucket list. Jetskiing is a popular summer activity and is extremely fun if you enjoy zooming around the water on a motor vehicle. Another entertaining activity that does require a boat though is wakeboarding. Wakeboarding requires a decent amount of strength in your shoulders, core, and legs. Another great activity to give a try is river rafting. River rafting is not only a great friend activity but also will give you a great arm workout from al the paddling.

Marathon

Whether you like to challenge yourself and try new things or you have a competitive drive a marathon is a great activity to give a try to this summer. No matter how long the distance is or what the activity you’re doing is, a marathon is a great way to stay active. Summer is a great time to try a marathon because there’s so many various obstacle courses to choose from whether it’s The Warrior Run that has obstacles as you run through the course or a triathlon it will give you a goal to reach.

Tennis

Last but not least, if you’re not a huge fan of cardio but want to try something that doesn't feel as miserable as running five miles outside or on the treadmill, give tennis a try. Tennis combines the concept of hand eye coordination along with cardiovascular endurance and arm strength. Which is great for someone who wants to exercise without feeling like they’re exercising. Summer is the perfect time to give it a try as who doesn’t want to get a tan while burning a bunch of calories.
