Big Sur

AdrianneHo_BigSur_SweatCrew-3AdrianneHo_BigSur_SweatCrewAdrianneHo_BigSur_SweatCrew-2The unspoiled land of Big Sur make it a magical destination for hiking, trail walking, and camping. Inhabited by artists, writers, and descendants of the original ranching families, the environment feels like nature in its purest form. Mostly untouched by the development of modern urban sprawl, its visitors respect its vast surroundings. A Sweat The Style favorite for its Zen-like sensibility, a perfect getaway for the active urbanite looking for some adventure in nature.

Trail Running

AdrianneHo_NikeTrailRunner-9 Hiking is a great way to exercise, enjoy the great outdoors, and spend quality time with friends. Walking on an incline while going up the trails helps strengthen your lower body and build endurance while burning calories. Make it more of a challenge by alternating between walking and running to get your heart rate up and keep your body guessing.
Put on your headphones, turn on a Sweat The Mix,  and alternate between running and walking with each song. Don’t be afraid to push yourself really hard when running because you’ll be getting a break again shortly.

Elevate The Hike

Adrianne_GriffithPark_WeightTraining-5 Adrianne_GriffithPark_WeightTraining-3Add a little weight to your next hike by bringing a light pair of hand weights (1-3lbs) to the trails. Start lifting the weights as you bring your speed up to a quick walk. Lift your left hand to curl the weight as your right foot moves forward and lift your right hand when your left foot moves forward.
This is an easy way to build muscle and increase your cardiovascular workout while taking in the scenery. Every step counts.
