Roller skating
Inline skating is certainly not just for children. Even though you may think you are too old, you are certainly not. If you can already skate a little, this will be super easy for you to pick up. Both are also very good for you. You burn almost as many calories while inline skating/roller skating as when you go jogging. In 30 minutes you can even burn 210 calories. Of course, it’s also just great fun to roll around with the sun on your head.
Nice dancing
Dancing in your living room is already fun, let alone how much fun it is to take dance lessons. Everyone likes a different style, so choose what suits you best. It’s fun to dance with a group of people of the same age, so you might make some new friends. Dancing with your partner is of course also fun. Then you immediately have some quality time.
To climb
Climbing is a good indoor and outdoor activity. This is for the really active people because it is quite difficult to climb a high wall. Climbing not only requires strong arms, your legs also have to be able to handle something. If you want to train for this, it is of course possible to start easy and gradually progress to a higher level. Be careful if you have long nails. They are not that practical when you are climbing.
Swimming as a hobby
Swimming is wonderful in summer. This is also just a hobby, especially if you do it often. On a hot day it might be the best hobby to have. It is also super active. So swimming every week is a good idea.
Tennis/padel
Tennis is a fun hobby to take up. It improves your hand and eye coordination and it is super active. Is tennis still a bit too ambitious for you? Then you choose padel. This is almost the same as tennis but is considered easier. If that’s still a bit too much effort, badminton is also a lot of fun.
Canoeing/kayaking
Canoeing or kayaking is wonderful in the summer. Who wouldn’t want that on a boat in nice weather? You have to apply sunscreen because you will probably be in the sun all the time. There are beautiful places in the Netherlands that you can visit by canoe or kayak. It’s definitely worth a try.
