5 Workout Options During The Rainy Days

While the rainy days can bring joy and relief to some, for fitness enthusiasts, it can be the end of the world for them. Because of the bad weather, some exercise junkies will find it too lethargic to go to the gym. 

But missing your workout days could mean a delay in progress. So how will you respond to the rainy season without sacrificing your gym workout responsibilities? Simple. Try these five workout options! Do not dump your favourite joggers for men just yet as you can still sweat it out even during the wet season.

Make Your Home Your Gym

1. Spot Jogging or Skipping

Jogging is known to be an effective cardio workout. During rainy days, you can still perform this exercise in a specific spot at your home. This can burn apporoximately215 calories for every 30-minute session. To do an effective spot jogging, a fitness expert instructs, “Lift your knees and move them back to the ground. Move the arms and legs like a running action.” It is as easy as doing a pre-workout exercise or a warm up.

Another option for a cardio workout is skipping. Aside from enhancing your cardiorespiratory fitness, it also develops the sense of coordination and balance. Just like jogging, it can also be done in any given spot at home using a jumping rope. It burns an average of 560 calories per hour.

2. Strength Training

Yes, you read it right. You can do strength training at your home using alternative weights. Using a dumbbell or containers filled with water, go for a weightlifting practice and burn up to 200 calories per hour. Just be resourceful and not even the bad weather can stop you from acing this exercise.

3. Yoga

Connect with nature while at your home by doing yoga. The sound of the raindrops can boost the connection of your mind and the body. It also helps develop good posture, alignment, and flexibility.  While sun salutation remains as one of the best forms of yoga, utilising the melodramatic sound of the rain will also give you unexpected benefits.

Go Outdoors

4. Exercise in the Rain

Take advantage of the situation and why not do your training in the rain? Based on several studies, working out in the rain can burn more fats and calories as you tend to use more energy. Just like swimming, it is quite more refreshing than other forms of exercise.

5. Trail Run

Take your exercise t the next level and try trail running. Get extra thrill as you go for a run in the woods while going for a challenge as the mud will interfere. This exercise targets the cardiovascular fitness while strengthening the legs and bone density. It also enhances cognitive and emotional health. The trail run is also an example of green exercise or training outdoors, which increases energy and vitality and reduces mental stress and anxiety.
