Health Tips for Today: With heat waves in different parts of the country, it is very important to keep your health under control. Often, in the name of the heat, we skip exercise or indulge in drinks that contain a lot of sugar. Staying active in the summer can be a challenging task. However, by modifying your routine with the right exercises, you can beat the heat and stay fit during the summer.
Here are some exercises during the summer season
1. Swimming: Swimming is not only a refreshing way to beat the summer heat, but also an excellent full-body workout. It offers numerous health benefits and keeps you cool. It is also a low-impact exercise that is gentle on the joints, making it suitable for people of all ages and fitness levels. If you can't swim, this is the perfect sport to learn.
2. Aqua yoga or water aerobics: If swimming is not something you want to learn, then choosing water aerobics or aqua yoga is another great exercise option. Water aerobics is suitable for all fitness levels and ages, and you don't have to know how to swim to participate. Aqua Yoga, on the other hand, offers numerous benefits, including improved flexibility, strength and balance, as well as stress relief and relaxation.
3. Yoga: If you work later and have the early morning hours free, then yoga is the best option to practice outdoors. Before 11am temperatures are cool and pleasant and doing yoga in the garden is very relaxing. But if you want to do yoga in the afternoon or evening, opt for some indoor classes.
4. Indoor sports: Indoor sports are an excellent way to stay active and beat the summer heat. Unlike outdoor activities, which can become uncomfortable in high temperatures, indoor sports provide a cool and comfortable environment. Instead of doing strenuous exercise, consider playing indoor sports such as badminton, tennis or basketball. You can also opt for indoor yoga, pilates and zumba, among others.
5. Morning walks or cycling: If going to the gym and doing strenuous exercise isn't your preference, consider early morning or late evening walks and cycling as excellent alternatives during the summer months. Even if you do go to the gym, it is advisable to avoid strenuous exercise. Instead, focus on cardio training and floor exercises to stay active and fit.
