However, not everyone feels like or knows how to approach physical activity in the summer for the right and safe outcome.

You can usually find its strength on the packaging of individual products, indicating the degree of protection against sun rays. Among the general recommendations is using <strong>sunscreen with an SPF factor ranging from 30 to 50,<\/strong> which you can boost with <a class=\"ek-link\" href=\"https:\/\/gymbeam.com\/sun-kiss-beastpink.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\"><strong>supplements to support healthy skin<\/strong><\/a>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Sunglasses<\/strong> and head covering, such as a <a class=\"ek-link\" href=\"https:\/\/gymbeam.com\/womens-caps-and-hats\/gymbeam-clothing_strix?filter=out\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\"><strong>cap<\/strong><\/a> to protect you from direct sun rays.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Adequate fluid intake<\/strong>, based on the general recommendations of experts from the Institute of Medicine of the National Academies, stating that <strong>women<\/strong> should drink at least <strong>2.7 litres of water daily<\/strong> (approximately 11 glasses), while for <strong>men, it is 3.7 litres<\/strong> (approximately 15 glasses). Another recommendation is to consume 30-45 ml of water per kilogram of body weight, taking into consideration higher needs during the summer. A good indicator in this regard is the colour of urine, which should be light. At the same time, it is <strong>not recommended to drink alcohol or caffeinated beverages,<\/strong> which can contribute to greater dehydration.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Electrolytes,<\/strong> which are lost through sweating. These include chlorides, magnesium, sodium, and other important minerals.

Whether it&#8217;s <strong>escalators in shopping centres, electric scooters, or air-conditioned cars.<\/strong> It is precisely the latter that has become a favourite means of transportation for many, helping them move quickly and conveniently from point A to point B. Some people use cars only when necessary, while others cannot imagine moving around the city without them. If you belong to the second group, try to limit car usage a bit. Beautiful summer weather is perfect for movement. How to go about it?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading is-style-h3\">1. Walk or cycle and leave your car or electric scooter at home<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If possible, try to walk to work tomorrow, or take a bicycle which will add speed to your journey, and you can easily carry smaller shopping items in a basket on your bike. While it may take slightly longer than the 10-minute car ride, it can help you stay active. If your workplace is far away, try to avoid using your car at least where you see the opportunity. For instance, if you have a small shopping errand to run tomorrow, <strong>walk to the store or use your bike again.<\/strong> You can also use your legs during your lunch break. Don&#8217;t order the food online; <strong>take a few minutes to walk to the nearest restaurant and check out their daily menu.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>And when you really have to use your car, <strong>try to park a bit farther away, so you get a chance to walk a little.<\/strong> This works especially well in large supermarket parking lots, where you can easily add <strong>dozens or hundreds of steps<\/strong> from your car to the entrance and back. By applying these tips, you might find that your pedometer on your watch or phone will show numbers in the thousands in the evening, confirming that you are on the right path to stay active. <span class=\"tadv-color\" style=\"color: #ff6600;\">[1]<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Walking is also an excellent way to help you lose weight. You can find more about it in the article <a class=\"ek-link\" href=\"https:\/\/gymbeam.com\/blog\/how-to-lose-weight-quickly-with-walking\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\"><strong>How to Lose Weight Fast with Walking?<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1124\" height=\"686\" src=\"https:\/\/gymbeam.sk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/iStock-1204863875-1124x686.jpg\" alt=\"1.

Prioritize stairs over escalators and lifts<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Just as comfortable as travelling by car are escalators that are often present in shopping centres. In this case, you cannot blame the heat as the spaces are air-conditioned during the summer months. It&#8217;s purely a matter of comfort, which can be easily limited. Almost every place which has escalators also offers regular stairs. Try to give them a shot, as it will <strong>easily increase your daily step count.<\/strong> You can also ignore the <strong>lift when returning to your apartment and take the stairs instead.<\/strong> Natural movement is one of the essential <a class=\"ek-link\" href=\"https:\/\/gymbeam.com\/blog\/what-is-the-most-important-factor-in-losing-weight\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\"><strong>factors in weight loss<\/strong><\/a><strong>. <\/strong><span class=\"tadv-color\" style=\"color: #ff6600;\">[2]<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading is-style-h3\">3. Don&#8217;t avoid household chores<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Summer is also a great time to focus on household chores. The backyard or garden offers excellent physical activity. Whether it&#8217;s <strong>mowing the lawn, planting, watering, or harvesting.<\/strong> In connection with these tasks, you can engage in other physical activities like preserving fruits and vegetables. Not only in a house but also in an apartment, you can participate in one of the most important activities, cleaning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Vacuuming, washing the floor, or cleaning the bathroom<\/strong> may not be the most popular activities, but they will keep you moving just like preparing a delicious lunch. Having a pet dog can also help you move more. If you decide to get one, your new fluffy friend will keep you active during <strong>regular walks or playing in the yard.<\/strong> However, consider all the aspects that come with owning a dog before making the decision. <span class=\"tadv-color\" style=\"color: #ff6600;\">[3]<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1124\" height=\"750\" src=\"https:\/\/gymbeam.sk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/iStock-1399726153-1124x750.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-482875\" style=\"width:843px;height:563px\" title=\"Don't Avoid Household Chores\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gymbeam.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/iStock-1399726153-1124x750.jpg 1124w, https:\/\/gymbeam.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/iStock-1399726153-400x267.jpg 400w, https:\/\/gymbeam.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/iStock-1399726153.jpg 1253w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1124px) 100vw, 1124px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading is-style-h2\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Make_use_of_the_summer_season_for_sports\"><\/span>Make use of the summer season for sports<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Undoubtedly, nothing keeps a person active more reliably than sports activities. And there are countless opportunities for it in the summer. It&#8217;s an ideal time to try something new and enjoy the beautiful weather. Water sports are a <strong>fantastic way to cool down during hot days.<\/strong> Nevertheless, you should still protect yourself from the sun and follow other rules mentioned earlier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading is-style-h3\">1. Water sports<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>One way is to explore water sports options, where <a class=\"ek-link\" href=\"https:\/\/gymbeam.com\/blog\/8-benefits-of-swimming-that-will-get-you-into-the-pool-today\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\"><strong>swimming<\/strong><\/a> is the foundation that can be both fun and a good workout. Swimming engages many muscle groups, and depending on the technique, you can activate muscles that are not commonly used on a regular basis. Swimming primarily targets the arms, abdomen, entire back, chest, forearms, glutes, and hamstrings. In the end, it becomes an effective <strong>full-body workout that also helps build strength, endurance, and speed.<\/strong> <span class=\"tadv-color\" style=\"color: #ff6600;\">[4]<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition to swimming, you might want to try <strong>kayaking or paddleboarding.<\/strong> Kayaking is a great activity that keeps you active and allows you to explore various water areas and coastlines. It can also be easily combined with a pleasant trip, especially if you have a larger kayak or boat, which you can enjoy with your family or friends. If you&#8217;re looking for something more challenging, paddleboarding is a popular choice. It <strong>tests your balance and core strength.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Whether you opt for one or the other, both activities can be done in groups or individually and are <strong>suitable for beginners and advanced participants alike.<\/strong> But if you seek s<strong>omething more adrenaline-pumping, rafting is an excellent option<\/strong> that you can enjoy with your friends. It allows you to experience both calm passages and wild waters, engaging various upper body muscles. <span class=\"tadv-color\" style=\"color: #ff6600;\">[5]<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1124\" height=\"749\" src=\"https:\/\/gymbeam.sk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/iStock-1369254947-1124x749.jpg\" alt=\"Kayaking is a popular summer activity\" class=\"wp-image-482891\" style=\"width:843px;height:562px\" title=\"Kayaking is a popular summer activity\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gymbeam.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/iStock-1369254947-1124x749.jpg 1124w, https:\/\/gymbeam.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/iStock-1369254947-400x267.jpg 400w, https:\/\/gymbeam.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/iStock-1369254947.jpg 1254w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1124px) 100vw, 1124px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading is-style-h3\">2. Ball games<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If water sports don&#8217;t appeal to you, summer is also ideal for outdoor ball games. Popular choices include <strong>beach or regular volleyball, football, or basketball.<\/strong> All these ball games come with a wide range of benefits, as evidenced by various studies. A study from 2018 found that team sports like <strong>handball or football<\/strong> have a positive impact on bone strength. People who regularly played these sports had higher bone mineral density compared to non-players. Research published in the National Library of Medicine also showed that playing <strong>basketball<\/strong> improves basic motor skills, coordination, flexibility, and endurance. Ball games are also a great time to hang out with friends<span style=\"font-size: 1rem;\">. <\/span><span class=\"tadv-color\" style=\"color: #ff6600;\">[6 &#8211; 7]<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading is-style-h3\">3. Racquet sports<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If ball games don&#8217;t appeal to you, you can still stay active during the summer with racquet sports. Whether you choose <strong>squash, tennis, ping pong, or badminton,<\/strong> each of them will entertain you, keep you in shape, and offer a variety of health <a class=\"ek-link\" href=\"https:\/\/gymbeam.com\/blog\/why-should-you-exercise-stronger-immunity-heart-health-and-8-other-reasons\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\"><strong>benefits from physical activity and the sports themselves<\/strong><\/a><strong>.<\/strong> For example, a study published in the British Journal of Sports Medicine found that racquet sports can help you live longer. The study involved over 80,000 participants and stretched over for 9 years. It showed that people who regularly <strong>played racquet sports, including tennis, squash, and badminton, had a 47% lower mortality rate.<\/strong> This benefit also applies to physical activity in general, making it a compelling motivation for staying active. <span class=\"tadv-color\" style=\"color: #ff6600;\">[8 &#8211; 9]<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading is-style-h3\">4. Other summer sports activities<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If you are not a fan of the sports mentioned above, there are still plenty of options to stay active during the summer. One of the first and most popular choices is cycling, which can be either an easy or demanding activity depending on the intensity. You can set your own pace and, with pleasant weather, nothing stops you from going on a trip where you can also discover interesting places.

First and foremost, be cautious of the heat and <strong>avoid exercising at all costs during high outdoor temperatures.<\/strong> Additionally, remember to maintain proper <strong>hydration<\/strong>, as mentioned earlier. However, you can also try out a few other tips.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading is-style-h3\">1. Exercise at the right time<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The highest daytime temperatures <strong>usually occur between 10:00 AM and 5:00 PM<\/strong>, but it always depends on the specific day. Therefore, during summer, you should avoid training mainly during this time period. Instead, adjust your routine to wake up early and <strong>train in the morning<\/strong>, for example, at 6:00 AM when the temperatures are still bearable. If you are not a morning person, <strong>you can still exercise in the evening<\/strong> when it gradually cools down outside. The ideal training temperature is considered to be around 20 to 22 \u00b0C, but that doesn&#8217;t always align with the circumstances. <span class=\"tadv-color\" style=\"color: #ff6600;\">[21]<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading is-style-h3\">2. Choose an air-conditioned gym<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>According to a study from 2021, high temperatures<strong> negatively affect muscle endurance and reduce the ability of muscles to repeatedly contract over an extended period. <\/strong>This can lead to faster muscle fatigue, which ultimately negatively impacts your training. If, for any reason, you don&#8217;t want to adapt your routine to early morning or evening workouts, an air-conditioned gym can still save you. You can visit it practically anytime without having to change your daily schedule because of training. It will provide you with a <strong>cooler and more comfortable environment to fully dedicate yourself to exercising.<\/strong> <span class=\"tadv-color\" style=\"color: #ff6600;\">[22]<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1124\" height=\"727\" src=\"https:\/\/gymbeam.sk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Snimka-obrazovky-2023-07-14-o-14.09.18-1124x727.png\" alt=\"Exercise in an Air-Conditioned Gym\" class=\"wp-image-482944\" style=\"width:843px;height:545px\" title=\"Exercise in an Air-Conditioned Gym\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gymbeam.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Snimka-obrazovky-2023-07-14-o-14.09.18-1124x727.png 1124w, https:\/\/gymbeam.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Snimka-obrazovky-2023-07-14-o-14.09.18-400x259.png 400w, https:\/\/gymbeam.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Snimka-obrazovky-2023-07-14-o-14.09.18-1536x993.png 1536w, https:\/\/gymbeam.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Snimka-obrazovky-2023-07-14-o-14.09.18.png 1946w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1124px) 100vw, 1124px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading is-style-h3\">3. Start exercising in warm conditions gradually<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If you decide to exercise at home or outside in warmer conditions, you need to set your training plan so that you don&#8217;t go full force right after the warm-up. <strong>Start slowly and gradually increase the load and intensity.<\/strong> Listen to your body and adjust as you feel. Initially, you&#8217;ll notice that the heat negatively affects your performance, but your body will gradually try to adapt through increased sweating. And that&#8217;s precisely the reason why you shouldn&#8217;t forget to drink. Additionally, for optimal performance, it&#8217;s important to <strong>replenish the electrolytes<\/strong> you lose through sweating, for example with a <a class=\"ek-link\" href=\"https:\/\/gymbeam.com\/sports-drinks\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\"><strong>suitable sports drink<\/strong><\/a><strong>.<\/strong> <span class=\"tadv-color\" style=\"color: #ff6600;\">[23]<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading is-style-h3\">4.

Although it&#8217;s a time for relaxation, it doesn&#8217;t mean you have to spend the whole time lying by the pool and moving just for the purpose of reaching the all-you-can-eat buffet. If you don&#8217;t want to, you don&#8217;t have to engage in an hour-long workout every day. Perhaps you&#8217;ll enjoy more everyday <strong>movement combined with calm exploration of your surroundings<\/strong>. It will also refresh your mind and allow you to discover new interesting places. You can alternate trips in the area with <strong>water fun<\/strong>, as mentioned earlier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Definitely <strong>try out local water attractions, snorkeling,<\/strong> and other activities that can keep you active.

You can also use some of the aforementioned tips like <strong>yoga, ball games,<\/strong> etc. Of course, we&#8217;re not suggesting that you spend your vacation solely focused on sports, but trying out a few options will surely leave you with a fresher feeling.
