Outdoor: Getting Out Of One's Shell
If you're bored with routinely in-house lifestyle, why not give
outdoor get-away a shot? Tell me, what's keeping you away from
all the outdoor fun?
Let me guess, you're probably in your mid 40's and you think
it's not okay for you to be seen doing some outdoor stuffs; or
maybe you live in a place where clubhouse and parks are nowhere
in sight.
Cheer up and chill out! There are more than a thousand reason to
go get outdoor and enjoy physical activities. Let it be a part
of your new found life! Here are 10 tips on how to overcome
barriers that hinder you from having a great outdoor fun.
1. Do not let your social environment affect your outdoor
lifestyle and physical activity. If people at work, school,
community, and even your family do not mesh well with your opts,
then try to stick with your own outdoor activities.
2. Outdoor activities aim to cut down on stress and pressure
brought by the exhausting environmental workplace. Look for
recreational places where you can increase and improve your
level of physical and outdoor activity.
If your village or residential area doesn't have trails, parks
or sidewalks, a spacious garage, or your garden side may do.
3. U.S Active Community Environments Initiative (or ACEI) have
projects and programs that are created in support of the
development of recreational centers and amusement parks where
people can continue to enjoy outdoor activities like jogging,
running, walking, bicycling and more.
4. Today, various fitness centers has continued to sprout, as
well as malls which fervently provide space and pavements for
fitness walking has come up with different ways to improve
people's health and wellness through many other outdoor
opportunities.
5. Technological breakthroughs and inventions such as elliptical
trainers, escalators, elevators, and cars which aims to make
people's lives easier are also making people work with less
movement, thus making them less
active.
Mom's who usually jogs from the house to the grocery to buy
goods are now finding the comfort of riding on their cars most
of the time. People would rather take the elevator than shed
some sweat and use the stairs.
Figure conscious people would often resort to drinking slimming
teas, or direct pills for faster results than getting real
exercise.
And people who believe so much in those powerful elliptical
machines would rather stay at home than enjoy fun and healthy
outdoor exercise. Don't let this barriers take the place of your
normal outdoor activities.
6. Most people tend to stay away from outdoor activities because
they think of it as being in a baseball game without all those
protective gears on. Its not, honey.
It's a sort of like a sport, yes. But it does not inflict charm
or injury to anyone. Outdoor games and activities suit to
increase your level of fitness, not like some ball game filled
with technical and personal fouls.
7. Spending time outdoors will gradually improve your
self-efficacy, confidence, endurance, power, strength, and most
importantly,it builds character. Use this as your key to the
gate of your goals.
8. Motivate your self. The best place to get started is right
where you are standing. Enjoy it.
9. Outdoor activities will teach you the value of skill
management, self motivation, the ability to see the beauty of
your dreams, and a million and one ways to achieve it.
10. Time is an important element. Organize your schedule. Look
for vacant slots and free times when you can best spend a day
outdoor. Call on your families, neighbors and friends to savor
the best outdoor activities you can think of and get as much fun
as you can.
