Summer sports can help you get ripped


The sunshine and warm breezes may have you wanting to skip the cramped gym in favor of some sports that will not only help you build muscle, but allow you to take advantage of the summer weather.


WebMD reports that it's important to change up a routine in order to avoid a plateau in fitness progression, so this may be the perfect time to switch it up.


An article on FoxNews.com reports that rowing is a great way to build muscles - especially in the arms and upper body - while also burning fat, which can help attain a cut physique.


Individuals who are lucky enough to live near the ocean should consider surfing, the source recommends. The sport requires whole body muscle activation to burn calories and get toned, and can also help improve agility.


Swimming is a surefire way to burn calories while building strength in a variety of muscles in the body, in addition to being great cardiovascular exercise.


The news provider also says that kayaking can be a great way to build upper body strength and gain toned arms, shoulders and back muscles.
