The first quarter of the year is
almost done. How are you doing with your fitness goals and New Year’s
resolutions for 2022? Committing to fitness resolution is a challenge — but not
as much if you’re living in San Diego.
San Diego is the perfect city to help
us reach all our fitness goals for the year. From the amazing climate to
ultra-convenient San
Diego meal prep, the city truly has everything we may need to live a
happy, healthy, and active lifestyle.
California in general has an awesome
Mediterranean-like climate, with its warm, dry summers and mild, sometimes wet winters.
San Diego has some of the best weather on the east coast, though.
The city gets an average of 266 days
of sunshine. In the summer, the days only get as hot as 25 or 26 degrees —
giving us great temperatures to explore the many great outdoor workout spots in
the city.
Winters in San Diego aren’t too cold,
either. The sunny weather persists, though temperatures do drop. At their
lowest, temperatures can reach the lower to mid-50s. Even if trips to the beach
may be too cold, it’s still the right temperature for daily runs and occasional
hikes when you bundle up.
Did you know that San Diego is one of
the best places to promote and commit to an active lifestyle? In WalletHub’s
new study, San Diego was found to be the fourth-best city to maintain an active
and healthy way of life.
This isn’t just because of the great
weather we get here. Despite its size, San Diego is among the top 20 most
walkable large cities in the country. The neighborhoods of Little Italy,
Core-Columbia, and Harborview are the city’s most walkable neighborhoods.
More importantly, the city has a
plethora of amazing beaches hiking trails, parcourses, and so much more outdoor
workout spots. Here are some to check out:
If you’re not a fan of getting hot and
sticky with sweat under the sun, then watersports could be the perfect workout
for you. This way, the cool waters of the ocean can help you stay cool while
working out.
San Diego has plenty of beaches for
swimming, surfing, bodyboarding, kayaking, and more. La Jolla Shores is perfect
for beginner surfers while Black’s Beach and Tourmaline Beach are excellent
spots for experienced surfers.
Mission Bay is popular for experienced
and newbie kayakers. If you prefer kayaking over calmer waters, then Carlsbad
Lagoon is a good alternative.
The city of San Diego has plenty of
long-running routes and trails to get our hearts pumping. For a scenic route,
check out the popular three-mile boardwalk from Mission Beach to Pacific Beach
or the two-mile trail at Sunset Cliffs.
The 100-step staircase of the San
Diego Convention Center provides a great workout to get your appetite all
worked up, too. For an even greater challenge, try the 245-step stairway of the
La Mesa Secret Stairs.
There’s no denying that gym
memberships are awesome but not everyone might have the budget for it. The many
parcourses around San Diego provide everyone with free workout courses for
stretching, cardio, calisthenics, and strength building.
The Embarcadero Marina Park South
parcourse has several push-up, pull-up, and dip stations. The De Anza Cove
Parcourse has around a dozen stretch and strength stations, as well as helpful
explanations on how to use them. Meanwhile, the 2.5 mile Perrier Parcourse
features 18 stations, which include a balance beam, log hops, and pull-up bars.
Hours of exercise wouldn’t be
effective alone — you also need to ensure you eat a balanced diet to achieve
your fitness goals. San Diego shines in this department as well.
San Diego may be known for its tacos
and Mexican food, but other cultures and countries are well-represented in the
city’s food scene as well. It has plenty of fantastic Italian, Korean, Indian,
Middle Eastern, and South and South East Asian food places.
The city has numerous casual and
fine-dining restaurants, food trucks, and hole-in-the-walls to fit anyone’s
palette or dietary needs.
Additionally, the San Diego meal prep
scene is popular and thriving, too. If you need well-balanced meals but don’t
have enough time to cook, delivery and meal prep in San Diego can take care of
everything for you.
It can be easy to let temptation and
laziness get in the way of staying lean and healthy. Here in San Diego, it’s
equally easy to find ways to overcome those challenges. We can thank the sunny
weather and the numerous workout spots in the city for that.
There’s no need to let busy days or
zero energy get in the way of eating healthy, delicious meals, either.
