How to Stay Safe While Exercising Outdoors

Staying safe while exercising outdoors involves preparation and awareness. Wear appropriate clothing and footwear. Stay hydrated and use sunscreen. Choose safe, well-lit areas and be aware of your surroundings. Carry identification and a phone. Inform someone of your route and expected return time. Avoid exercising alone in isolated areas. Listen to your body and rest if needed. Regular outdoor exercise supports fitness and mental well-being, but taking safety precautions ensures a secure and enjoyable experience.
