Spring is finally back… or almost! After months of battling with winter coats and shoveling snowbanks taller than our cars (thanks, February!), it’s time to embrace the warmer days ahead.
To celebrate the season of renewal and longer daylight hours, here are 10 simple yet invigorating activities to enjoy this spring. Get ready to move, have fun, and treat yourself!
🍁INDULGE IN MAPLE TREATS AT A SUGAR SHACK
Spring means maple syrup season! Whether with family or friends, heading to a sugar shack for a sweet feast is a must: crispy pork rinds, baked beans, and of course, sugar pie and maple taffy on snow. After such a delicious meal, why not burn off some of that sugary energy at the gym?
⛷️ENJOY SPRING SKIING
Who says skiing is only for winter? With the sun shining and snow still covering the slopes, spring skiing offers a unique experience for winter sports enthusiasts. Less cold, more fun! And after a day of hitting the slopes, a good
stretching session—available on our YouTube channel—will help keep soreness at bay.
🥾GO FOR A HIKE
As the trails become accessible again and nature slowly awakens, hiking is the perfect activity. Whether at Mount Royal or deep in the woods, short or long, a good hike helps stretch your legs and soak up some much-needed vitamin D. To make the most of your adventure, consider adding some cardio and strength exercises to your workout routine at Éconofitness.
💧RELAX AT THE SPA
After a tough winter, we all deserve a little relaxation. Enjoying a spa day under the spring sun is pure bliss. With saunas, hot baths, and cozy lounge chairs, every excuse is a good one to unwind. And to make your escape even more satisfying, take advantage of
exclusive discounts for Éconofitness members on thermal spa experiences.
🍎REDISCOVER PUBLIC MARKETS
With fresh spring produce making its way to market stalls, public markets burst with color and flavor. This is the perfect time to shop for local ingredients and try
new recipes. After all, eating well and working out at Éconofitness is the winning combination for feeling your best!
🐦VISIT THE “JARDIN BOTANIQUE”
A walk through the “Jardin botanique” is like outdoor meditation, no matter the season. Take a leisurely stroll, breathe in the crisp air, and admire nature as it slowly comes back to life. You’ll also have the chance to observe a variety of birds thanks to the feeders scattered throughout the site.
🍦ENJOY YOUR FIRST ICE CREAM OF THE SEASON
As soon as ice cream shops reopen in just a few weeks, it will be official: spring has arrived! Whether you opt for a classic vanilla-chocolate twist, a strawberry milkshake, or a giant caramel sundae, every bite is pure joy. The first taste instantly brings back childhood memories!
🚴♀️GO FOR A BIKE RIDE
For many, biking is the ultimate sense of freedom on two wheels! Whether cycling through the city or along scenic nature trails, it’s a great way to enjoy the fresh air while staying active. To get your legs ready for long rides, try incorporating some
strengthening exercises into your routine. And until all the snow melts, why not take a virtual ride on a
stationary bike at Éconofitness?
🥪PLAN A PICNIC
Even though summer is still a ways off, spring is a great time to bring back outdoor meals. Lay out a picnic blanket, prepare some delicious dishes to share, and enjoy a relaxing time outside. Between bites, why not toss a frisbee, play a casual game of soccer, or simply unwind with good company? Nothing beats fresh air and a friendly atmosphere to fully appreciate this beautiful season.
💝TREAT YOURSELF
Spring is also the perfect time to take care of yourself. Do what makes you happy—read a good book in the sun, try a new
group fitness class at Éconofitness, or simply spend some time outdoors to recharge. The key is to do what truly brings you joy!
