Summer weather inspires me to exercise outside, even though some days it’s super hot and humid. I usually work out early in the morning when temps are the lowest, and if I’m done by 8:30 a.m., I usually beat the heat. Not only do I love not having to wear a lot of clothes, but there are also so many different ways to move your body, you’ll never get bored. With busy Summer schedules and the sometimes unbearable heat and humidity, 15 minutes may be all you can spare (or bear). It may feel like a short time, but some exercise is always better than none at all.
