Summer embodies fun, celebration, connections, and activity. Yet, for many women over 40 trying to shed some weight, striking a balance between festive indulgences and maintaining an exercise routine can be challenging. Why not look back to our carefree days for inspiration and adapt those childhood joys into our adult lives?

A Trip Down Memory Lane

Reflect on your younger self. At 7 years old, did you relish biking through the neighborhood, roller skating down the lanes, or plunging into a refreshing pool? Perhaps dance lessons were your thing, or maybe you reveled in the excitement of games like dodgeball or croquet?

Our bodies yearn for movement to remain vibrant and healthy. But the hustle and bustle of life post-40 can sometimes overshadow our desires or needs to stay active. Summer, with its longer days and warmer nights, offers the perfect backdrop to rekindle that passion for physical activity. Here's a fun exercise: grab a journal or notepad and list out your top three childhood summer activities. What summer adventures made your younger self's heart sing?

From the thrilling slides on a slip 'n slide, rhythmic beats at the roller rink, to leisurely dips in the pool or challenging treks up hills – there's an adult equivalent waiting to be explored. Activities like walking, swimming, dancing, or even participating in a local sports league can help you recapture that pure, unadulterated joy while working towards your fitness objectives.



Dive Into My Story

When I think of my childhood summers, water comes to mind. Pools, to be exact. The exhilaration of discovering a hotel pool or memories of summer camp pools fill my heart with warmth. This summer has been a gentle nudge, reminding me of the simple pleasures of a cool, refreshing dip. It's incredible how such memories still have the power to elicit pure joy, even after all these years.

So, ask yourself: What brought you joy back then, and how can you weave that into this year's summer?

Benefits Beyond the Fun

Movement is more than just a source of fun; it's therapeutic. For women over 40:
  • Weight Management: Regular physical activity aids in weight control.
  • Bone Health: It promotes better bone density, countering osteoporosis risks.
  • Energy Boost: Staying active elevates energy levels.
  • Menopause Symptom Relief: Exercise can help mitigate certain menopausal symptoms.
  • Overall Well-being: Improved mood, cognitive function, sleep quality, joint mobility, and muscle strength are just a few added advantages.

Summon Your Inner Child

Are you prepared to infuse your childhood fun into today's fitness regimen? Whether you're a team player or a solo enthusiast, select something that truly resonates with your inner child. Commit to engaging in it at least three times a week for the upcoming month. By doing so, you're not just reminiscing – you're prioritizing your health and well-being.

Remember, perfection isn't the end game; joy is. Let's embrace the euphoria of movement this summer, one step, splash, or dance at a time. It's our season to shine, ladies!
