Well, Fall has officially arrived which makes it even harder to be physically active. I love running outside, but the cold weather and wet days put a damper on that; so I have to adapt and plan my workouts inside. Today I am going to talk about a few activities and ways to modify your workouts to beat the Fall season. First, I want to discuss a few Fall activities and the calories expended during each one.

1. Fall means tons of beautifully colored leaves all over your yard and raking the leaves is a must do and a fairly decent exercise as well. A 150 pound person would roughly burn around 225 calories an hour while raking leaves.

2. Another Fall activity is maybe going to a corn maze, a nice long hike through the woods or through a local park. These activities are similar to walking on the treadmill, but add a spice and prevent boredom. An hour of these activities burns around 333 calories for an 150 pound person.
