As long as it’s not below freezing I love working out outdoors. There’s something about being in the sun and having the outdoor air cool you off (well at least when it’s nice out!). Anyhow, there is a Westchester County park in White Plains I frequent called Kittrell Park. I like that they have bars to perform pullups and attach my TRX suspension trainer to. Here is yet another one of my favorite workout; my pull WOD which works all of the pulling muscles. Additionally I added some leg work but not to really work the legs out well but rather to keep up my heart rate and make it a high intensity interval training (HIIT) workout. This constant work in between sets will increase your durability, endurance and enhance your metabolism for hours after the workout as well as during recovery.
