The theory is that exercising outdoors exerts more energy.<\/p>\n<p>Be careful.. this could have the opposite effect if you are attempting to workout when temperatures are extreme.<\/p>\n<p>Working out when it\u2019s too hot could affect your endurance. You may also be more tempted to shorten the duration of your workout.<\/p>\n<p>Try doing your outdoor workouts early in the morning before temperatures spike, or later in the evening.<\/p>\n<p>Always stay extra hydrated and above all.. listen to your body!<\/p>\n<p><strong>2: It Could Cheer You Up<\/strong><br \/>\nHundreds of studies have shown that soaking up the sun and being surrounded by mother nature helps alleviate stress and improve overall mood!<\/p>\n<p>Exercising outdoors has even been shown to enhance your brain! Researchers say this is because being outside stimulates all five senses at once &#8211; something that can\u2019t be achieved inside a gym or your living room.<\/p>\n<p>Head outside .. breathe in some fresh air .. take a moment to appreciate the beauty around you! Maybe even take off your headphones and listen to the sounds of nature!<\/p>\n<p>A little natural Vitamin D is no doubt a great motivator to get moving!<\/p>\n<p><strong>3: It Saves You Money<\/strong><br \/>\nGym memberships are not cheap. Not to mention, they often go unused.<\/p>\n<p>How many times have you paid for a year and only showed up once or twice a week, or even worse, gone months without entering a building that you pay to use?<\/p>\n<p>If you can go every day, a gym membership is no doubt worth the money. But despite what most believe, it\u2019s not required to get in a solid training session.<\/p>\n<p>That is why we focus on so many home workouts on our <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/vshred\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">YouTube Channel<\/a><\/strong>, and why we recently created an entire program called <a href=\"https:\/\/vshred.com\/sp\/move\/soc-all\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">MOVE<\/a> that can be done from home.
