Greetings!
Now that the temperature is dropping it can be tempting to head indoors and turn to the treadmill versus exercising outdoors -- but there's no better time than fall to get fit in the fresh air. The cool, crisp breeze is much more conducive to outdoor fitness than the humidity and blazing sun of summer, and the more time you spend outside, the better you're bound to feel while you burn calories and tone your muscles with traditional fall activities - from raking leaves to getting ready for Halloween. You'll spend plenty of time at the gym when it's cold and dreary outside right now, GO OUT AND HAVE FUN!
Stay Focus and Fit!
