Sports to do outside
You can of course also do all these sports in the winter, but spring is the perfect season for this. In the lovely spring sun you might also get a nice tan and of course your much needed portion of vitamin D. Let’s go!
Tennis
Ready for a fun game of tennis? This ball sport is a super effective sport to practice for an hour or an hour and a half for a successful workout. This does not have to be at a professional level, it can also be done with friends or your partner. You burn a lot of calories and it’s a lot of fun.
To run
Running is also a fun sport to practice in the spring. You no longer need thick socks, jacket and hat, because of the sun and high temperatures. Can’t you even run a hundred meters? No worries! It’s the perfect opportunity to build your fitness from the ground up. By summer you can run a few kilometers in a row. How fun?
Mountain biking or cycling
Who thinks that this sport is more for men; think again. Mountain biking or cycling in general is totally hot and happening this spring. It is a tough sport that may be a bit out of your comfort zone, but that doesn’t make it any less fun! You burn a lot of calories without even realizing it. Great!
Take long walks
Yes, walking is also a workout and perhaps one of the most effective sports there is. While in the winter you quickly stop after a walk around the block, in the spring you can literally push your limits and take wonderful long walks. If you do this for at least half an hour every day, you can really see this as a workout. You’re gonna be snatched. In addition, walking is also super fun to do with your dog, family or friends.
Roller skating
Do you still have a few rollerblades at the back of your closet? Time to dust them off, because this spring we’re going rollerblading! This sport keeps you full for a long time and burns a lot of calories. It is also great to train your legs and buttocks, but in a really fun way. Who are you going with?
