3. Raking Leaves
Don’t ever underestimate the power of raking leaves. It is a great activity to do with family and kids too!

    * Targets: Upper body strength with some cardio.
    * Calorie Burn: 266 calories per hour.

4. Horseback Riding
Many national parks and city parks offer horseback riding. Further, rural and suburban areas throughout the country have horse farms. Horseback riding is great if you love animals and want to feel connected to nature:

    * Targets: Lower body strength.
    * Calorie Burn: 236 calories per hour for general riding or 472 calories for racing.

5. Hiking
Hiking is absolutely beautiful during the fall because of the beautiful foliage you can see (obviously this is true in more temperate climates).

    * Targets: Lower body strength (and upper if you carry a backpack) and cardio.
    * Calorie Burn: 354 calories per hour.

6. Golf
Golf is a game that can be enjoyed all the way through the fall. Don’t rent the golf-cart, however, as walking will give you a lower body workout and some cardio.

    * Targets: Upper and lower body strength.
    * Calorie Burn: 207 calories per hour.

And, although these don’t necessarily burn as many calories, don’t underestimate the power of apple picking and pumpkin picking … not to mention pumpkin carving! So, don’t let the change of season slow you down—keep moving and enjoy!
