Stay Hot When the Temperatures Drop

Hi friends!  Hope you had an enjoyable weekend!  If you’ve been following me for any length of time, you know that I love to be active on the weekends.  During the summer you’ll find me biking, playing tennis, SUPing, kayaking and more.  I love the fact that when the weather is warm, the possibilities are endless for fun and healthy activities.  But around this time of year the days gets shorter, the temperatures get colder and the motivation to get out and do something starts to wane.  I hate packing up my bike for the winter and kissing days filled of fun activities behind until next summer.  So I made it a priority this weekend to get up and get moving!

We started out with a healthy breakfast of pumpkin oatmeal.  I got the recipe from Elise at 9toFit.  It was perfectly delicious and filling.

I then headed out for a Zumba master class, which I’ll tell you all about later this week!  So fun!

Followed by a healthy seasonal salad from Just Salad (I don’t know why they call it that since they have other things besides salad but anyway . . .).

We then headed to Arthur Ashe Stadium for some tennis.  I know I say this pretty much every week but the fact that we found a place we can play inside that doesn’t cost an arm in a leg in the city is amazing!  Plus it ‘s nice to be able to do something active together.

After my yoga class on Sunday, the Hubs and I headed to Chelsea Piers for lunch.  I ordered a veggie sandwich with pesto mayo and said no thank you to the fries (that was the ultimate display of willpower for me!).

After lunch we headed to the driving range at Chelsea Piers to hit a few balls.  Even though it was rainy and gross outside, we were still able to hit 100+ balls from the upper level of the driving range.  The stalls are outdoors but covered so we stayed perfectly dry while driving balls into the eery mist over the Hudson River.

 I finished the weekend the way it started with a little Just Dance 2014 and Zumba Core (affiliate link) on the Wii!  It’s hard to believe that I burned 130 calories in just 20 minutes, it’s so much fun!

Readers, how do you stay healthy on the weekends when you can’t get outside?  Do you workout with your spouse/partner/friends?  Have you tried Zumba Core for the Wii?
