]]>A Lovely Way to Meet People and Socialize
When you join a group for a particular interest or hobby, you know you’ll have at least that in common with the other group members which can start you off with getting to know each other. Chatting to people while enjoying a stroll is a lovely way to connect with them more.
Easy Exercise
When you’re walking along in a big group you’ll hardly even notice the exercise you’re getting from the movement. This is a great way to get your daily steps in and enjoy some social and gentle exercise. You’ll also be more likely to stay motivated as you’re part of a group.
Get to Know the Area Better
The best way to get to know your local neighborhood and the area around your college site is by walking around it. Researching some routes and heading out on them with your fellow walkers will be a great way to get your bearings.

]]>Single Arm Row
This workout helps to build your back strength and tone your biceps. Start with your right knee and right palm on a chair or bench and step out with your left foot with your left arm outstretched and holding a dumbbell. Pull the dumbbell up while keeping your body stationary before lowering it back down.
Dumbbell Chest Press
Lie on a bench or your bed while facing up. Hold your dumbbells directly over your head with your elbows extended. Bend your elbows and lower the dumbbells to the sides before pushing back up. This exercise strengthens your chest and triceps.
Seated Shoulder Press
Sit on a chair and hold the dumbbells straight over your head. Slowly bend your elbows and lower the weights until your elbows are in line with your shoulders. Push back up to starting position for a challenging shoulder and lower back workout.

]]>5 a Side Soccer
Soccer is hugely popular across the world, but the classic version of the game requires lots of players and a huge pitch. The name of this version suggests only 5 each instead, but you can choose however many you like really. You can also simplify the rules and play in a small area. Basically, just have fun while playing a soccer-related game.
Group Bike Ride
Riding a bike with a group of friends is one of the best feelings. There’s such a sense of freedom and you can chat while cruising or just take in the views, all while getting some decent exercise.

Dancing is such a great choice for exercise, as it burns so much energy and is super fun. Learning some dance moves with friends will undoubtedly lead to plenty of laughter and joy, and if you start to pick it up well then you’ll have a cool dance routine to pull out at parties.

]]>Planks
While this exercise requires you to remain still, what makes planks so effective is that they require you to maintain a firm pose, thereby working almost your entire body. This workout helps to condition your core, chest, shoulders, and glutes.
Bodyweight Squats
Although viewed as a lower body workout, squats actually require you to maintain a tight core and hips while also stabilizing your arms as you keep them stretched out. Of course, your glutes and quads will also get fired up by this challenging workout.
Superwoman Pose
If you’re studying at home, then this exercise is perfect for you. All you need to do is lie on your stomach, extend your arms and legs and then lift your arms and legs off the floor, holding the position for three seconds before lowering back down. This exercise is effective and simple to perform, with no gym equipment necessary.

]]>Do What You Love
The best thing about working out outside of the school system is that you can do whatever you want to. Your P.E. teacher is no longer coming up with your workout routine—you are! Dancing, running, yoga, or Pilates. The options are pretty much endless and you can try them all until finding the one that suits you.
Short and Sweet
Your schedule will be pretty packed with studying and exams, so make time for exercise where you can instead of putting pressure on yourself to have a fixed workout schedule. There are a bunch of short and sweet workout videos on YouTube that you can complete in 10 or 20 minutes from the comfort of your dorm room.
Get Out
Your dorm room may be too tiny to work out inside it, but it’s not the only place where you can get some exercise in. Some colleges have gyms for students, but if that’s not the case with yours, you can always take a run around campus, exercise outside, or look for an affordable gym nearby.
