The summer months can be some of the most enjoyable of the year, but they can also be some of the most challenging on your health and strength. Between the cookouts, holidays, weekend celebrations, and an overall desire to not be indoors or in a gym, many people find themselves going through summer feeling weaker and weaker.

But does it have to be this way?? Can you still enjoy the summer months without letting your health and fitness be put on the back burner? And is there anything you can do to maintain the results you have worked so hard to achieve so you can continue to feel strong and capable throughout your life without feeling like you need to completely rebuild your body once September rolls around?
