Just because the temperatures are dropping, doesn’t mean you should drop your fitness regime! From using an online personal trainer to joining a group class, here are some simple ways to transition your workouts from summer to fall. 


Although fall brings with it cooler weather and shorter days, there is no excuse to enter ‘hibernation mode’ this season. In fact, whether you choose to work with an online personal trainer or at the gym, autumn is the perfect time to jumpstart your fitness program because:

  • The cooler weather is perfect for training and helps you stay comfortable during your workout.
  • There is a wide range of fresh produce available, making it easier to stick to a healthy and balanced diet.
  • It gives you momentum to carry on your fitness routine through winter when the weather is colder and the calendar is full of festivities.
  • It helps you get into shape safely before the following spring/summer.

5 Tips For Transitioning Your Fitness Routine From Summer to Fall

Just because the temperatures have started to drop, leaves are falling from trees, and days are getting shorter, doesn’t mean your fitness program has to suffer. Instead of letting these seasonal changes hinder your weight loss goals, why not look at autumn as the perfect opportunity to revamp your workout routine?

To help you transition your fitness routine from summer to fall, try these following tips:

1. Switch It Up

It’s important to switch up your workouts and the fall is a great way to add some new twists to your routine. If you’ve been running during the summer, add in some strength training this autumn. If you’ve been working out alone, why not try a new group class or online personal training? This is a great way to add some excitement to your workouts and get your motivation back up.

2. Go Outside

During the hot days of summer, it’s hard to take your workouts outdoors, but in the fall, you can go outside whenever you want thanks to the cooler temperatures. You may want to consider joining a running club, as this will give you the accountability you need to keep your routine going as the weather gets colder.

3. Don’t Forget The Layers

When exercising outdoors during the fall, you must dress for the elements. Wear multiple layers of breathable clothing to keep you warm and remember, you can always remove these as you work up a sweat. Tip: Don’t forget a waterproof outer layer just in case it rains!

4. Stay Safe

While autumn’s perfect temperatures give you a great opportunity to exercise at dawn or dusk, it’s important to stay safe. If you decide to go for a run at an early or late hour, remember to wear reflective clothing so motorists can see you.

5. Carry Water With You

During the fall, you must be extra mindful to drink water despite the cooler weather. Even if you aren’t sweating as much as you did during your summer workouts, you can still become dehydrated.
