Getting Active During Summer

Getting active can seem difficult when you have a life that keeps you busy from dawn till dusk. However, it is important to schedule some time to get moving. An active lifestyle will help you live a healthier, happier life. At Summit Chiropractic and Longevity Center in San Rafael, CA, we believe one of the secrets to a long life is physical activity.


During the summertime, the weather allows us many different types of activities to participate in. Check out some of these ideas and then make a list of your own!


Hike: Hiking is a great way to connect with the outdoors, learn about your surroundings, and get in a good workout. Check out your local trails and parks!


Bike: Biking is another great way to get a workout and to explore your surroundings. It is also an eco-friendly way of transportation if you live in an area where it is possible.


Swim: Swimming is a fantastic way to get a total-body workout. It’s a great way to cool off in the hot summer months, also!


Kayak: Get a great upper-body workout by renting a kayak! Many rental outfits have guided tours for beginners.


Walk: Put some pep in your step and get walking! You can make this more interesting by grabbing a friend and doing a scavenger hunt for plants and things that are only around during the summertime!


It really doesn’t matter how you get active, you just need to do it! Getting your heart rate up several times per week will help decrease the risk of heart disease and provide many other benefits for a healthy life.
