FITNESS SOLUTION IN QATAR

FITNESS SOLUTION IN QATAR




New Year - new plans .Getting fit must be always on our agenda .Here are some advice where and how to get physical here :

1.Cheap solution : walk  ! Corniche

advantage : it is free , by the sea you can breathe the fresh air from the seaside
disadvantage : from the road you breathe less fresh air - however at dawn even the city's air is clean

my tips : always take a mobile with you - it is long and in some hours deserted - the public phones are not always working and you need a card to use them .
there's only one public comfort station all along the 6 km path -be aware of that before your start

Aspire Sport city walking - there is a 3 km path for walking, jogging and cycling .

advantages : it is near some shopping malls -so you can arrange the shopping and the fitness at the same time
every 500 m or so you can find boards with instructions about exercise .
there are guards everywhere
you can find restrooms here and there

Mall walking is the perfect workout, alongside controlled temperatures; it provides a clean and safe environment to exercise. Where can you walk?
Al Khor Mall & Hyatt Plaza: 8am-12am Daily
Landmark & Villaggio: Sunday-Wednesday 8am-10pm and Thursday-Saturday 8am–11pm




Cheap solution : some TV channels also have fitness classes .the  Indian  Zee  Tv has yoga sessions  as early as 5:30 every morning  nowadays
