Skipping into summer like...
Possibly the cheapest of workouts and certainly one that takes me right back to the playground, skipping is a high-intensity workout and a great form of cardio. Whether you're indoors or out in the garden when the sun is shining, skipping is great for cardiovascular fitness, leg strength, stamina, coordination, bone strength, balance, agility, full body workout, flexibility, and endurance.
Investing in the right footwear for your workouts can prevent foot and ankle damage. These trainers are padded for comfort with a foam midsole doubling as an outsole for lightweight cushioning and forefoot Flywire cables for a secure fit.

Getting some traction
The yoga swing, also known as yoga trapeze or yoga hammock is fantastic at relieving back pain. Hanging upside down gets you instant traction and creates more space between your vertebrae.
Practicing yoga in a yoga sling increases strength, balance and flexibility. This swing includes online access to professional tutorials and pose charts for beginners.

Hula girl
Another playground favorite and a seriously fun way to stay in shape, hula hooping is great for toning your stomach and taking inches off your waist. To vary your workout, move the hoop with front-back movements and not just a circular motion. If you don't know which exercise to start with, or how to get your posture right you can take a look at the Domyos website. Their design team and qualified sports coaches have developed a coaching service to guide you. The website contains a dozen free videos showing exercises you can do with your weighted hoop. And why not keep track of all your efforts by using a Fitbit while you're at it?!
