The Power of Outdoor Workouts

This episode is ideal for anyone who needs a gentle push out the door or a reminder of the benefit (+ beauty!) of being active in the outdoors. The guest who puts the “out” in “workout” is Tina Vindum, founder of Outdoor Fitness and authof of Tina Vindum’s Outdoor Fitness: Step out of the Gym and into the Best Shape of Your Life. Along with hosts Sarah Bowen Shea and Molly Williams, Tina talks about:  -why negative ions have a positive effect on both body + mind;  -trail running tips;  -taking a wildflower “safari”; -how to add strength moves into a run or hike; and, -“park prescriptions” and “forest bathing.”   This is a hybrid episode: The intro chitchat with the hosts recounting recent outdoor exploits was recorded in July 2024, while the guest interview (which starts around 07:28) first aired in 2017.      When you shop our sponsors, you help AMR.
