Get Fit Friday: Concert Season Fit & Safe 2012

June 22, 2012 By: Bargain Brianacomment

One of my favorite things about summertime is the outdoor concert season.  I worked at a venue near my home town during high school and college and I LOVED it.  I really enjoyed being outdoors, seeing big shows for free, people watching, supervising camping, interacting with vendors, talking with fans and co-workers, and of course ALMOST meeting my crush, George Strait!  Although fitness may be the last thing on your mind when getting ready for a concert, there are some things you can do to stay fit & safe while having fun!

  • Use a concert as an incentive or reward for working hard all winter and spring. Concerts can be great workout motivation.  You could use a big night out with the girls as motivation to push through workouts, working yourself up for the big day(s).
  • Limit alcoholic beverages.  Save calories and money by limiting your drinks at the show
  • Don’t smoke!  Although it may be tempting, pass on the cigs.  You’ll be getting enough of a contact high via second and third-hand smoke.  If you’re sensitive to smoke, choose a pavilion seat or other non-smoking area at your venue.
  • Walk around during intermission to increase your step count for the day.
  • Stay hydrated with plenty of water
  • Wear sunscreen
  • Some venues allow you to bring a small bag of snacks.  If so, pack something small and healthy to avoid over-eating and over-spending
  • Don’t go alone- Concerts tend to be a busy place.  Be sure to have a friend or two with you at all times
  • Remember where you park.  Save time and stress by making a mental note of where you parked before the show
  • Have an emergency plan.  It’s a good idea to have an emergency meeting spot in case someone gets split up from the group.  Also, find the on-site first aid tent before you start drinking, just in case!
  • Avoid the mosh-pit (need I say any more?)
Concerts can be a great stress-reliever.  It can be fun, social, and exciting.  Just remember to use common sense and don’t over-do it.  If I had to highlight ONE of the bullets above I’d say- LIMIT ALCHOL.  Don’t get me wrong, I like to drink socially, but it can be very dangerous if you over-do it.  I would know :)
Who are you going to see LIVE this summer?!

Find a concert schedule for a location near you through LiveNation or Ticketmaster.com.
