Fitness Fusion: Combining Summer Activities for Ultimate Fitness Fun



Summer is not over yet, and the weather is still warm! It’s the perfect time to shake up your fitness routine with a dash of creativity and a splash of fun.

Your workout should be hotter than the blazing temperatures outside! Developing a “Fitness Fusion” is the perfect way to spice up your routine by combining activities to deliver an exhilarating workout experience that boosts both physical and mental well-being. So say goodbye to monotony and hello to innovative fitness this summer season!

Listed below are examples of fitness activities that are fused together for a creative workout!  I’ve included a “Fused” Total Gym exercise for each activity too!

  1. Waterfront Yoga

Find your happy spot near a serene lake, pool, or beach.  Imagine the sun warming your skin, and the gentle lapping of water creating a tranquil soundtrack. Yoga can provide the ultimate fusion of balance, strength, and mindfulness.  So what better way to experience this than outside in nature

    • Total Gym Exercise: crescent pose – plank – child’s pose
  1. Dance-Based Martial Arts

Why not channel your inner warrior with a blend of dance and martial arts? Classes like Capoeira and cardio kickboxing fuse rhythmic movements with powerful strikes, offering a full-body workout that improves agility, coordination, and cardiovascular health. Plus, it’s an absolute blast that produces a powerful sweat!

  1. Trek Training

Take your hike to the next level by incorporating strength training exercises on the trail. Use natural features like logs for tricep dips, rocks for step-ups, and trees for resistance band rows. This combination maximizes your workout, blending the benefits of cardio and strength training while immersing you in nature’s beauty.

  • Total Gym Exercise: cross over repeaters

Total Gym Integration

Enhance your Fitness Fusion routine with Total Gym equipment. Its versatility allows you to seamlessly incorporate strength, cardio, and flexibility training into any activity. Whether you’re doing yoga on a stability ball or adding resistance to your dance moves, incorporating strength workouts on the Total Gym can enhance your fitness skills all while keeping it fun.

Get Started

Create your own Fitness Fusion with these simple tips:

  1. Mix and Match: Choose two activities that excite you and create a hybrid workout.
  2. Keep It Fun: Focus on enjoyment. The more fun you have, the more likely you are to stick with it.
  3. Challenge Yourself: Gradually increase the intensity to keep your body guessing and continuously improving.
  4. Bonus – Total Gym It: Create an exercise using your Total Gym that simulates the active(s) you love and perform those moves in a strength circuit.
