Derval O'Rourke: Outdoor exercise and superfood salad

Exercising outdoors can feel less strenuous than doing the same workout indoors. This also helps you to do more, which is a plus!

Superfood salad: "this recipe is full of goodness"

As the weather is starting to improve, I’m trying to get outdoors for my exercise a little bit more. This week I am going to chat about the benefits of exercising outdoors and give some examples of ways to incorporate outdoor exercise into your routine easily. For this week’s recipe, I have chosen my Superfood Salad. It’s amazing any time of the year, but especially in Spring/Summer.

I have lots of challenges on Derval.ie and for the upcoming one — April 12 — I am incorporating an outdoor element. I think everyone is feeling a bit fed up of being at home, and doing home workouts — it can be tedious, so mixing it up with some fresh air can really help.
