Summer turns our already stunning coastline into a vibrant, living thing. With such a backdrop, most of us are used to getting our sweat on outside—whether that’s pounding the pavement on a coastal run or paddleboarding on the Pacific. At Swell Goleta, we’re not here to replace your cherished outdoor workouts; we’re here to enhance them. At our athletic club, you can seamlessly transition from refreshing laps in the pool to refining your technique on pristine courts, all under the glorious California sun.
Breathe Deep, Feel Great: The Advantages of Outdoor Exercise
There are numerous advantages to incorporating outdoor workouts into your routine. Here are just a few:
Fresh Air and Sunshine: Escape the confines of the gym and immerse yourself in nature. Fresh air revitalizes your senses, while sunshine provides a dose of vitamin D, essential for bone health and overall well-being. Studies have even shown that outdoor workouts can elevate feelings of well-being and reduce stress compared to indoor exercise.
Boosted Calorie Burn: Uneven terrain, wind resistance, and maintaining balance during certain activities can all contribute to a slightly higher calorie burn compared to exercising on a treadmill or stationary bike.
Workout Variety: Outdoor fitness offers a chance to break the monotony of a typical gym routine. Swell Goleta provides numerous options to explore—from swimming to tennis to pickleball—keeping your exercise experience fresh and exciting.
Connection With Nature and Community: It’s not just about physical benefits, either. Working out outside provides a chance to connect with other fitness enthusiasts and immerse yourself in nature. Whether striking up a friendly tennis match or enjoying a post-workout snack poolside with friends, there’s always something to connect over.
