Fitness Vacations for Spring and Summer

A full season has passed since you made your New Years resolution and now its all too easy to let the best laid plans to get in shape fall by the wayside while you enjoy the spring and summer holidays.  However, it doesn't have to be that way...

You could make yourself the odd-one-out, sticking to a diet that doesn't allow you to indulge while everyone else enjoys tasty travel delights, or you could simply plan a trip with your family or friends that involves plenty of physical activity to counter those calories.

Consider Costa Rica. With a car hire from San Jose airport you can drive to either the fantastic beaches on the Nicoya Peninsula which have several fantastic yoga resorts, or take a 7 seater car hire to La Fortuna for serious water sports like kayaking or whitewater rafting. Both options will ramp up your metabolism for a vacation treat or two, or you can stay at a resort that comes with a healthy meal package.

With a car rental from Las Vegas airport you can drive to nearby Red Mountain Spa in Southwestern Utah to melt away the pounds while hiking through the most dramatic Red Rock scenery. The resort offers several options for every type of hiker from a 3 mile, flat ground beginner's hike to a 9 mile expert hike through rugged terrain. After busting your buns on the trail you can do more than just cancel out calories by indulging in La Stone therapy with hot lava stones to soothe sore muscles instead of dessert.
