We’ve hit the mid-point of the summer, where we shift our priorities from hitting our gym goals to making the most of what we have left of the summer. Hitting a slump in your summer workout routine is a common experience that many individuals face, especially with routines becoming disrupted by vacations, social events, or simply the allure of lazy beach days. It's easy to find yourself veering off track from your fitness goals, but that isn’t a sign of failure. The initial enthusiasm we began the season might start to wane, but there’s still time to hit the reset button.
Resetting your summer workout routine is all about introducing new workout routines into our schedule that challenge you, spark gym joy, and get you to shake off the midsummer slump. Embrace the summer spirit by incorporating outdoor activities like swimming, hiking, or beach volleyball, which are just as effective as they are fun. And if you’re considering trying new fitness classes or joining a group workout to add a fresh perspective and social aspect to your routine, you’ve got the perfect program for you to explore.
The 14-Day Summer Sculpt series from Alo Moves is a sizzling workout designed to reignite your summer fitness routine. Led by your new gym besties, Jeffrey Alan and Meghan Mcferran, this program promises to sculpt your muscles from head to toe with short and spicy workouts that pack a punch.

With a mix of sculpt styles like dance, slow burn, and cardio, you’ll say “bye-bye” to boredom as you switch things up with a new workout every day. Whether you're a seasoned fitness enthusiast or just starting your journey, this series caters to all levels of experience. You have the flexibility to choose between individual workouts for a quick sweat or stack them together to intensify the burn, allowing you to adapt the program to your personal fitness goals.
I’ve been implementing workouts from the series into my gym time to change up the monotony of my cardio and HIIT routine. As someone who has always wanted to incorporate more dance and high-energy moves into my workouts, I’ve found myself gravitating toward the “Dance Strength Sculpt” And “Dance HIIT & Sculpt” programs with jumping, high-energy, muscle-building movements that put a focus on my abs and glutes.
The 14-Day Summer Sculpt series aims to invigorate both your body and mind, creating a sense of motivation and energy that will carry you through the last stretch of summer. By targeting and toning your muscles effectively in each class, you'll experience tangible progress over the two weeks, leaving you feeling strong and confident in your ability to bounce back after a gym hiatus.

While the moves can be challenging at times, it’s been fun to see what I can accomplish when I embrace each challenge and let the good vibes flow.
It's okay to have occasional setbacks or days when you don't feel like hitting the gym. Working out is a journey with many ebbs and flows that remind you to be patient with yourself and to practice self-compassion. By hitting the reset button and embracing a new approach to your summer workout routine, you'll find renewed enthusiasm, stay committed to your fitness goals, and make the most of this vibrant and active season.
Whether you're prepping for a special end-of-summer vacation, aiming to improve your overall fitness, or simply seeking to have fun while staying active, this series will be a perfect addition to your summer reset routine.
