With summer right around the corner, here are activities to stay fit while in the sun.

Hiking- It’s possible, even in Shelby Twp; try trails at Stony Creek or River Bends. Hiking for an hour can burn 430 calories for 120 pounds and 500 calories for 140 pounds, according to Personal Trainer Karissa Markham. This works: legs, abdominals, lower back, and inside and outside thighs. Don’t forget to pack the following items for a comfortable hike: a light snack, plenty of water, sunscreen, insect repellent and sunglasses.

Swimming- Swimming is good for cooling down on a hot day and a good workout. If 130 pounds, approximately 400 calories can be burned, Markham said. This tones the legs, arms, chest and core. Swimming can be relaxing, but remember to wear sunscreen to protect the skin.

Rollerblading- Rollerblading is a fun and social activity to do with a group of friends. Try it in a neighborhood or at a local parks, like Stony Creek, River Bends or Mae Stecker. Rollerblading burns 500 calories per hour for 130 pounds, Markham said. Muscles used during this exercise include: hamstrings, quads adductors, glutes, as well as the core. Skating is a low impact sport for joints, ligaments and tendons.

Tennis- A game of tennis can be played friendly or competitive. Open tennis courts can be found at PeachTree Tennis Club, Lifetime Fitness and Mae Stecker Park. Approximately 450 calories per hour can be burned for 130 pounds, according to Markham. Tennis works: arms, legs and core. Remember to bring closed shoes for running and water to stay hydrated.
