Living in concrete boxes, under artificial light, staring at glowing screens in the seated position for hours on end, commuting in cars and trains, and essentially ignoring the natural rhythms of sunrise and sunset are not conducive to moving better.
Such environments are more likely to provide persistent aggravation and result in chronic stress. Getting into nature, can reduce stress and act as a countermeasure to the urban, modern life stressors.
Exercising in the presence of nature can have health benefits beyond getting our blood pumping.
BENEFITS OF TRAINING IN NATURE:
- Positive effects on self-esteem and mood.
- Sunshine = Vitamin D
- Built-in variety
- Stress reduction
- Immunity boost
