Throwing an Outdoor Fitness Party

If you and your friends need a break from social gatherings that overflow with high-calorie foods, start a new socialising trend that puts the focus back on healthy living - throw an outdoor fitness party! Hold it on a weekend afternoon so that several of your friends can join in. Send your invitations a week before the event. Ask guests to come in comfortable exercise clothes and encourage them to bring workout DVDs for a DVD swap during the party. Foods served should be light and healthy. Go for hors d'oeuvres with ingredients such as fresh greens and nutritious seafood like tuna and salmon. Vegetable salads, wheat bread sandwiches, and low-sugar fruit smoothies are also great snacks.

To make the party more interesting, hold mini-contests such as tug-of-war and sprinting games. As the main event, ask a professional gym instructor to show you how to perform an exercise that you and most of your friends have never tried before. If you have never learned how to do yoga, invite a yoga practitioner to your party and request for a special demonstration. Capoeira is also another form of exercise you might want to try with guests. It is perfect for the party atmosphere since it makes use of dance, percussive music, and colourful props.

Holding your fitness party outdoors is best since it will give you and your friends more room to perform physical exercises. It also feels great when the fresh air is filling your lungs while you indulge in healthy food and engage in fitness activities.
