Getting Active Outside

Being active outdoors offers a range of physical and mental health benefits. Fresh air, sunlight, and natural surroundings can help reduce stress and improve mood, while outdoor exercises like walking, running, and cycling boost cardiovascular health, strength, and endurance. Exposure to nature has been shown to enhance focus, creativity, and cognitive function. Additionally, outdoor activities provide opportunities to socialize, increase vitamin D levels, and make fitness more enjoyable by adding variety to your routine.
