Hiking Outside For Exercise — Revamp Your Routine
    As the warm weather months begin to dwindle and the temperatures drop, try getting outside on the weekends for a few final days of fall and fresh air. Makeover Momma’s know that every step counts (and workouts shouldn’t be repetitive), so try gathering up the family and hitting the trails.
                                                 
                                         Take working out into your own hands (literally), like always active mom Jen Garner.
- Check out websites such as American Hiking, which provide resources and information on hiking safely and efficiently.
- Find local trails near your city by entering your information on websites like Local Hikes or Trail Link, which help locate paths nearby.
- If you don’t live near mountains or hiking areas, try walking a local track in your city with friends (with baby in a stroller), and stop to run the bleachers with each lap. This lets you and your little one breathe fresh air (while toning your glutes), without driving miles away.
- If all else fails and you simply can’t make it outside for a hike, try hitting the treadmill (if you are a member of a health club with a nursery) and increasing the incline every 30 seconds. After reaching the maximum, slowly lower…and repeat again!
