The Problem: Stagnation in Your Routine

Let’s face it—sometimes our fitness routines can get stale, especially after months of doing the same thing. Whether it’s lack of motivation, a busy schedule, or just plain boredom, it’s easy to get stuck in a rut. And with the holidays fast approaching, it’s even more tempting to push exercise down the priority list.

But that’s exactly when staying active is most important. As stress builds and energy dips, a solid fitness routine can help you maintain your strength and stamina. The right fall fitness tips and workouts can help you stay consistent when the season is changing and life gets hectic.

Intermediate Workouts:

  • Hiking: Challenge yourself with a hike that gets your heart pumping while immersing you in fall’s scenic views.
  • Strength Training Circuits: Build strength with a mix of weightlifting and cardio for a full-body workout.
  • Moderate-Intensity Interval Training (MIIT): A balanced approach to cardio and strength, MIIT gives you a good workout without being too intense.
