The moment the weather clears up, or you\u2019re feeling better, the first thing on your mind may be to hit the outdoors and get some fresh air. Rather than staying indoors to fit in your workout, why not utilize the nice weather and hit an outdoor metabolic circuit?<\/p>\n<p>The great thing about an outdoor metabolic workout is that not only is the world your playground, but you also have one heck of an atmosphere and backdrop for a workout. While you don\u2019t need any equipment for this outdoor metabolic circuit, if you have a park or playground nearby, you can use the structures there to your advantage for the workout. Assuming this is the case, you\u2019re going to not only find this outdoor metabolic circuit surprisingly challenging, but you\u2019re going to find it incredibly fun.<\/p>\n<p><em>Disclaimer: This article is for informational purposes only and should not be used to treat or diagnose any condition. It is recommended that you speak with your doctor before starting any exercise program, making changes to your nutrition plan, or adding any new dietary supplements into your current regimen.<\/em><\/p>\n<h2><strong>Outdoor Metabolic Circuit for Total Body Annihilation<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Now, for the fun part. Getting outdoors and doing something different is a great way to stay motivated and move forward to achieve your health and fitness goals. A change of pace is a great way to get out of a gym slump or plateau you may have hit. Essentially, you\u2019re challenging your muscles in a manner that they are not accustomed to being targeted. This can stimulate new muscle growth while also helping you effectively burn fat.<\/p>\n<p>When putting together an outdoor metabolic circuit, it\u2019s all about using your creativity and the things around you to your advantage. Hills, park benches, monkey bars, thick tree branches, the list goes on and on. All these things can be implemented into your outdoor metabolic circuit.<\/p>\n<p>Below is an example of an outdoor metabolic circuit you can implement into your training. It\u2019s not going to be easy, but it will most certainly get you sweating and out of breath.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\u00a0<\/p>\n<div class=\"youtube-embed\" data-video_id=\"AZ939TY-KBA\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Health benefits of exercising outdoors l GMA\" width=\"696\" height=\"392\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/AZ939TY-KBA?feature=oembed&#038;enablejsapi=1\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<h2><strong>How to Complete the Workout<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>For this outdoor metabolic circuit, you are going to run through the exercises one after the other with little to no rest (only take a rest period when you absolutely need it). The goal here is to keep your heart rate elevated to continuously burn calories and fat while taxing the muscles.<\/p>\n<p>To begin, you\u2019re going to want to warm up for 5-10 minutes. This can be something as simple as walking around the park or playground. This is going to warm up your muscles and get the blood pumping throughout your body. Once you are effectively warmed up and ready to work, start the outdoor metabolic circuit laid out below.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>The Outdoor Metabolic Circuit Workout<\/strong><\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Squat Jumps: 10-15 repetitions<\/li>\n<li>Pull-Ups on Sturdy Tree Branch or Playground Bar: 10-15 repetitions<\/li>\n<li>40-Yard Sprint<\/li>\n<li>Crunches: 10-15 repetitions<\/li>\n<li>40-Yard Sprint (running back to where you started)<\/li>\n<li>Push-Ups on the Ground or on a Bench: 10-15 repetitions<\/li>\n<li>Mountain Climbers: 20 repetitions<\/li>\n<li>Dips on a Bench or Parallel Bars: 10-15 repetitions<\/li>\n<li>Jumping Jacks: 20 repetitions<\/li>\n<li>Walking Lunges: 5 for each leg walking out, turn around, and 5 for each leg walking back<\/li>\n<li>Plank: Hold your core tight and isometrically flex your biceps for 20-30 seconds<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>(Repeat the whole circuit 1-3 more times, depending on your fitness level)<\/p>\n<p><em>** Beginners should start with only one circuit to assess their current fitness level. They may continue with additional circuits if they feel they are able. For intermediate or advanced exercisers, you can run through the circuit 3-4 times.<\/em><\/p>\n<hr\/>\n<p><strong>Author Bio<\/strong><strong>:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Matt Weik, BS, CSCS, CPT, CSN<\/strong>, is a globally recognized health, fitness, and supplement industry expert with over 25 years of hands-on experience.
