Today’s Topic is: Five Fitness Things You’d Love to Try
I’m pretty boring. I like to run, walk, hike…
But if I left my comfort zone, here’s a few:
1.Lifting Weights.
I stick to the machines that I’m comfortable with at the gym. But many runners seem to be lifting machines…
2.Zumba.
I have two left feet. But it looks like fun and it is very popular at my gym.
3. Track Workouts.
I just run and slowly with walks thrown in the mix but if I want to get back some speed, this might be a good idea. A local running club does offer these on Tuesday evenings.
4.Peleton Strength Workouts.
I subscribed to several free trials but I only used Peleton for the stationary bike and outdoor runs. I’m not sure I’d pay for it again but there are many free Peleton workouts.
5. Outdoor Cycling.
I seem to choose running, walking or hiking when I have time. And the stationary bike when I am injured.
But I know biking outside has its benefits. One of my running friends has been bugging me to try it. And there are many bike paths in my area.
As I said above, these are all out of my comfort zone… but maybe I will try one or more…
Happy Running! What things would you love to try? Please share.

You should try one of these this year! I bet you would love biking outside. I should have put Zumba on my list as well, that is one I have always thought would be fun.

I’m not big on biking unless it’s flat.

I’ll be interested to see if you try some of these! Zumba does look fun but I would be TERRIBLE at it. If you have bike paths in your area and friends to go with you, cycling sounds like it could be a great option.

I bet cycling would be so beautiful in your area!
We used to have something called High Fitness. It was sort of like Zumba but it was a lot of popular dance music, and it was more like a step class without the actual step. And a lot more dancing. That was FUN and a calorie burn. I miss that.

Zumba classes are packed. The music is live too. It’s intimidating for a beginner.

Strength training is even more important as we age. I’d start with that!

Zumba was so popular a in the mid-2000s or something like that. Most of my colleagues did it. I was never interested, but dancing has rarely interested me (although, I loved square dance when I was in my 20s!).
Of course I’d recommend lifting weights. But I’m biased!

Yes you are. I’m intimidated by it. Zumba is very popular at my gym.
I did square dancing in college.
