If You Want to Boost Your Power...

Try Outdoor HIIT Runs

Building your endurance doesn’t have to mean running a marathon a day. HIIT, which stands for high intensity interval training, can get you ready for longer fitness goals down the road. Whether you go with your favorite instructor or opt for a HIIT After Hit Two for One Run, you’re guaranteed to appreciate every second of “down” time that comes in these intense but worthwhile runs.

If You’ll Be Swimming This Summer...

Check Out 10 Min Arms and Light Weights

If you’re all about the pool and want to up your swimming game, you should focus on your arms. A strong upper body will improve your strokes and up your speed in the water. And regular arm and upper body workouts using light weights—even for just ten minutes a day—can help you stay strong and safe in the water.

If You’re Traveling a Lot This Summer...

Check Out Bodyweight Strength

You may think you need heavy weights to sculpt muscles and burn calories. And yes, weights can do that. But if you’re on the go this summer—especially traveling by plane—packing up weights is sure to put your luggage way over the limit. Enter bodyweight training. And here’s the thing: Bodyweight workouts improve strength, endurance, and power. But best of all, it’s one of the easiest workouts to do anywhere you are—from a hotel room to a backyard—to make sure your summer plans don’t derail your fitness goals.

If You Want to Strengthen Your Core...

Check Out Pilates

Pilates is an amazing workout for strengthening and tightening your core. And once you do that, your posture improves, your neck and shoulders can relax, your body frame feels more supported and you’ll notice a huge difference in how you feel during activities, whether it’s a leisurely summer walk or a long ride on your Peloton Bike.

If You Want Motivation to Move Outside...

Check Out Outdoor Walk + Run

Pop on your headphones and let our instructors provide the playlist, motivation, and right blend of intervals to get you outside this summer. You can take an Outdoor Walk + Run on the beach, trail, or around your neighborhood.

If You Want to Take Advantage of Summer Flexibility...

Try Yoga Classes

Your body is already warm from the summer heat, which makes it primed for the bends, stretches, and twists of yoga practice. And your muscles are likely more flexible, making joints feel more limber and freer than they do during the cold winter months. Take advantage of the looseness in your body to challenge yourself to go deeper into postures.

If You Want Your Mind Sharp to Achieve Fitness Goals...

Check Out Meditations

If you’re struggling to find your drive this summer, start by exercising your mind first. Meditation prepares your mind and your body for exercise by focusing your attention and building your motivation.
