Nude Fitness

[DenitaLC]

Thought I'd throw out a post asking what types of Fitness activities you've done nude?

I'll go first....(haha)....

Nude swimming....laps, not just splashing around.

Did my first nude 5K last weekend...fun!

Nude volleyball....hours of it...whewwww!

Nude weightlifting at Desert Shadows, Caliente and at home.

Nude walking on the beach.

How 'bout the rest of you?

Stay nude and healthy!

[Al Bundy]

The only nude outside exercise I am able to perform is when I visit a local resort where I can walk (to out of shape to run) and dog paddle in the pool. At home I work out on the exercise ball and do some weightlifiting also. If you count cleaning house as exercise, add that to my list. If I could only convince my spouse to participate in nudism we could live the life you appear to enjoy according to the activites listed in your post. I plan on visiting Little Beach in September so I will be getting some nude beach walking in.

[Natureisone]

Hi DenitaLC,my wife and i have done nude swimming laps,nude volleyball lost of as well,nude hiking,nude badmington,nude weights and also lots of nude walking,nude cricket,basketball.
I think thats all i can say we have done,and we enjoyed doing it all nude than clothed just feels better . http://oakhurstonline.com/icon/eusa_dance.gif

[DenitaLC]

Very cool! I forgot nude basketball...did that for the first time this last weekend with the run but it was only shooting around, not a game. http://oakhurstonline.com/icon/sad3.gif Maybe next time!

That's great that you two do those things together.

Hiking & fishing a wonderful experience when done nude

[Natureisone]

Well he would make a great player at that height,yes we do like to do alot of nude sport togeather lots of fun and also keep fit,our 14yr old daughter does the sport with us as well most of the time she loves it as well. http://oakhurstonline.com/icon/happy.gif

[nkdsaoi]

I did some nude hiking with some body weight exercises like Hindu squats and pushups last week at Glen Eden. The resort has some good hiking trails with some pretty steep inclines. I got a good 45 minute workout in.

[miracleman]

Some of the fitness/sports ive done nude are:volleyball,cricket,golf,boules,miniten,hiking, running,swimming,trampolining,fishing,tennis,weigh t-training and soccer.

[True Brit]

http://oakhurstonline.com/icon/happy.gif Have'nt done much sports or activities whilst nude, its something i would really love to do. Most naturists i've met over the years seem to be 50+ in age terms, so any physical activity seems to be non existent or very little.

I have however played water volleyball and took part in an all female pool aerobics, i was a bit embarressed as i was out of shape and did'nt really have a clue what i was doing after 5 minutes i wished i was somewhere else. http://oakhurstonline.com/icon/embarassed.gif

[Tampanude]

The original olympic evens were all performed nude although women wore a wrap of fabric around their breasts in roman times. mostly for support rather than discretion. It has been proven that the body, without artificial restraint, excercises more efficiently because of the enhanced sense of movement and exursion. Swimming has long been lauded as the most aerobic, least joint impacting, method of exercise.

Add swimming nude and it just can't be beat!

Ever hear of anyone who hated skinnydipping?

http://oakhurstonline.com/icon/eusa_dance.gif

[atalanta]

In regard to True Brit's comment, I am 50++ and do more physical exercise than at any time since my early 30s. Activities done nude include swimming laps, workouts, beach walking, hiking, jogging, beach bat & ball games, beach boules (petanque), driving, cooking, having lunch, sauna & steam room, using PC

[fred950]

Some of the fitness routines/sports I have done nude include swimming laps, hiking, volleyball, stationary bikes, arm curls and butterfly plexes. While not strictly an exercise or sport, nude log splitting does do a complete workout.

I have tried to talk the owner of a local gym to let me do a nude workout after hours. He still thinks I am kidding...even after I pointed out just what the word 'gym' really means!

[naturalmanwa]

I have done hiking, swimming, fishing and mtn. biking.

[tallynudistII]

i have yet to exercise nude

[maliakei]

Some of the nude sports I have done are:
badminton, croquet, shuffleboard, and even hopscotch & Tic-Tac-Toe (at the beach). And if you count board games, then SCRABBLE + Chinese Checkers.

[Naturist4Ever]

I am not much of a organised sports person but nevertheless:

* swimming (obviously), i prefer seawater (makes you feel lighter and even more floating) but also freshwater and pool, indoors and outdoor;

* snorkeling

* beachvolley (not indoors, don't like indoor sports), badminton (outdoors), tabletennis (outdoors), darts (outdoors)

* walking (wish we had some decent nude walking areas around here where you could go around for miles. The best we have not more than a 20mins walk and infested with perv's (semi-gay men looking for everying but naturism). We don't have long sweeps of beach around here.

* fishing but only once. Would like to do more of it, but am not patient enough.

* skiing in winter (short laps!)

Cheers

[Fuzzy Nuts]

Unless we are at a nudist resort the only thing wife and I can do naked (other than the obvious) is sunbathe, but we we nude walk nude, play volleyball, petangue etc. at nudist resorts.

[NudeAl]

Lots of nude volley ball. Man that sand can be rough! I also did my first nude 5K run out at Kanicksu Ranch great turn out too.

[nudeM]

When I used to lift weights, I would work out in the garage, nude. The early mornings were realtively warm, so it felt great. Haven't done that for quite a while. Maybe I'll start up again. http://oakhurstonline.com/icon/smoking.gif

[Nude_Dude_Runner]

I try to work out nude when I can. Riding a trainer, using a stairmaster, and lifting weights are all easily done nude in the right environment.

Not having as much laundry to do when finished is a great plus, not to mention being cooler because you do not have clothes against you trapping heat.

I also have run several nude fun runs...another coming up soon here at Paradise Valley in Georgia.

I believe one is more able to see what the body is doing, and that you are doing the exercise properly, when nude.

And Caliente had an awesome workout room. What a great resort!

We also played nude tennis there. Coming back to the heat of Altanta and playing ALTA tennis with wet, clothes tugging at your body was certainly a frustrating reminder how nice it is to play clothesfree....

[Ken Palmer]

Hello Dee. Good question. I have kind of wondered about this question myself. Well, I myself have done volleyball and simple walking in the nude and that's about it. I am not too good of a swimmer. When I go to a beach, I only go up to my stomach in water to keep my feet on the ground. Would attending a DJ dance at Glen Eden Sun Club on a hot summer night qualify as a fitness activity?

Well being a "wrinkly" old guy (still young at heart) - I guess some of the fitness activities listed above are not on my list BUT I do do -

NUDE
- Yoga
- Walking around the farm
- Night walking (nude at night walking in the bush is just great)
- Farm work in general (farming is my hobby so farm "work" is pleasure)
- I swim in our pool but being a bit lazy I can't say that I do "laps" - 1 or 2 slow laps is about it.

http://oakhurstonline.com/icon/beam.gif <span class="ev_code_RED">JAMES</span> http://oakhurstonline.com/icon/beam.gif

[RalphVa]

I do stretches every morning for my back and morning and night shoulder stretches and strengthing, all to prevent effects of osteoarthritis in back and right shoulder.

Wife and I walk for about 45 minutes every day after lunch.

Nude gardening and lawn mowing.

All home and grounds maintenance is done nude front the front of the house back, approximately 8 acres behind the 1/2 acre out front.

Take my cars around to the side or back of the house and wash them nude on a regular basis.

Tractor maintenance is done nude with it parked behind the carriage house.

[emsdude]

It would be nice if you/we could just go to a place and work out nude,after all it's all about the body and taking care of it. No one would care how great it would be all a round.And how Great you would feel leave all your cares that the door.Come and relax and feel good. Stress free I know how good it feels to be nude not a care feeling good. Be happy don't worry being nude.

[rone]

Boy, I couldn't agree more with emsdude. I would really enjoy!

[ronbo]

Weightlifting

Hiking and Walking

General Exercises (can't spell calastetics)

Volleyball

Corn Hole (don't know if it qualifies as fitness but has lots of throwing stretching bending walking)

David.

[emsdude]

I use to like running a long moonstone beach, here in Rhode Island before it was closed to ??? birds.Now I do nude sit ups and push up at home go to the ymca to work out, you have to wear clothes for weightlifting at the ymca. It sure is nice if you can work out nude, like if you have home gym etc with out someone having a fit because your nude. Well keep fit and keep it nude.

[foux003]

Unlike my friend BrianRi. I never was into fitness activities, but my wife, my friend Jody and I have gone canuding.

[foux003]

BrianRi is that a picture of your self? I can't tell, I have never seen you naked in that position. It could be I guess.

[barebum]

Love working our naked when I get a chance! Keep much cooler more pleasant experience In summer like playing bat and ball, and frisbee etc naked on beach.

[HokkaidoRob]

Don't have much opportunity unfortunately but the few include:
-swimming
-jogging
-home exercise equipment

[gymnoboi]

I hike nude when I can and of course swim but mainly I walk on my treadmill nude at least once a day.

[nudeM]

Since November, I've purchased a Bowflex and put it in the bedroom. I use it on a routine basis, and I love it. I have yet to use it with anything on. Whenever I tell the wife that I'll be in the back, she knows I'll be naked and working out. Working out in the nude is a great feeling, something I wished I could have done a long time ago.

Now if only I can find a way to go jogging down the street, nude. http://oakhurstonline.com/icon/smoking.gif

[Fuzzy Nuts]

It was great to be able to lift weights nude in the new gym at Eden Bay. Now if I only could do this in my gym at home!!!

[walter05]

I had a friend with a weight set at home. I was trying to learn and asked him to show me. He said he usually used them nude. Then I told him to do as he usually did.

He felt that when you could see the muscles tensing and releasing, it aided the experience.
I felt it was also interesting to see someone else's tensing with the same exercise.

When he asked me if I wanted to try it, I dropped my shorts and said sure.

I agree that nude weight lifting is great. However, since he moved, I have lost the opportunity. I miss it.

[Big-Thinker]

I've tried to stay fit, from time to time, and about any non-sport exercise I've done, I've done the nude version too. Seems about anything is better in the nude.

As for running in the summertime (or other heavy, prolonged exercise where you'd sweat alot), I see nudity as necessary for health and safety, to allow perspiration to do it's thing and try to regulate your body temporature. I'm sure that to some nude, "primitive" peoples of the past and present, it must seem insane that "civilized" people sweat buckets more than they need to, endangering their health, only to comply with the no-nudity taboo.

[harveym]

Treadmill year round. Gardening when the weather is warm enough. What's great is using the health club while on a nude cruise.

[Natural Lee]

Nude weightlifting at home

Nude hiking

Lee

[shomymojo]

My favorite is nude yoga...especially as a spectator sport...LOL

[Ken Palmer]

The most strenuous activity I have done in the nude is playing volleyball at Glen Eden Sun Club in June of 1992. Since then, I have done a couple of short or moderate walks in the nude at Black's Beach a few years ago. Other than that, that's about it for me!

Ken Palmer

[MoCpl]

Nude Fitness Activities

Swimming (Pools and Open Water)
Kayaking (Rivers and Lakes)
Canoing (Rivers)
Nordic Track (Home)
Calastinics (Home)

[Larry1]

I myself have done:

weight lifting
swimming
fishing in a kayak
and hiking ( a long time ago )

[gentlegiantsix6]

Nude swimmer and biker here, a few weights and crunches too. Have a fine nude day everyone!

[luvtobenude]

I have actually done nude yoga. it's great

[RichNH]

The only ones I've been able to do nude is some light weight lifting at home and one hike. Most of the time I do the weight lifting at a gym and the hiking is done in at least shorts since the trails tend to have people on them and attitudes around here aren't what they are out west.

Rich

[Nudeinbama]

Though I also love free-hiking ,walking the beach and swimming nude. Kayaking or canoeing is great done nude also, just use plenty sunscreen, as the suns often pretty intense out on the water.
Nudeinbama:)

[Meeee]

Unfortunately, there is no where that I know of that I can excercise nude. If there was I would definitely be in better shape!

[martinvt]

Swimming, Scuba diving, hiking, volleyball. Beer drinking probably doesn't count.

[JeepNude]

I did some nude hiking with some body weight exercises like Hindu squats and pushups last week at Glen Eden. The resort has some good hiking trails with some pretty steep inclines. I got a good 45 minute workout in.

My wife and I have done the trails at Glen Eden so many times, we have them memorized! What an awesome workout!!! And a good view too.

I have not been to GE for a few years, but we are thinking about doing it for a week this year. We stayed in R15, the ONLY non-smoking park model rental there.

[chops]

I've gone jogging in the nude and volleyball. Also worked out on the exercycle and NordicTrak. I needed shoes for those two, but otherwise it qualifies for nude exercise. Does stretching count as exercise?

[gentlegiantsix6]

Stretching sure qualifies as exercise in my book--especially if it's a good yoga stretch.

[country nude]

I do some weight-lifting and occasional swimming nude. As others have said, I'd be in better condition if i could do more things nude.;)

[redrocksnudist]

Wow, I am impressed...

of course those (of us) who don't exercise (much) aren't 'fessing up are they?

I have to admit I don't exercise as much as I should...

but did at one time get to do some rock climbing (clambering) for most of a day nude...

a short spin on my bike nude...

and some walking (also nude)...

Brenda has been much more faithful in her exercise routine...

and it shows...

we plan to get a few more items of exercise equipment...

i.e. treadmill, maybe bowflex (or something)...

but Brenda has mostly used only the equipment god gave her to exercise with...

plus she has an exercise ball she uses...

would be a great thing for us to exercise together...

as we do everything else together...

[Natureisone]

Hi everyone,i have been exercising nude now for some months now at home.
I finish work a 4.00pm and am on my tred mill by 4.30pm and i exercise nude for 30mins 5 days a week it feels great.
Freedom of no clothes and the sweat running down your body is awesome.
Take Care

[NatureFred]

Just read my way through this thread and thought I'd throw in my $.02. I've lifted weights, swum laps, and played volleyball nude. And, at age 50, I'm working out much more regularly, and am much more muscular, than ever before in my life. Ironically, though, the better fitness comes at the expense of exercising clothed: I used to lift naked at home occasionally--now I go to the gym on a regular schedule but I have to wear clothes there.

I wish one of the smaller local gyms would set aside a block of hours for clothes-free exercise--I'd guess if they did it in the middle of the day they'd increase usership in hours they are usually empty.

[eagle59]

My main form of excercise is road biking and I am definitaly unable to do that in the nude. It would be great to do so, but it is not to be :(

[Evernude]

Nude weight lifting
Nude treadmill
Nude lawn mowing
Nude gardening
Nude car washing/waxing
Nude house cleaning
Nude house painting
Nude swimming
Nude pool cleaning
Nude back yard hockey (not in goal)
Nude back yard basketball
And many, many more.

[Ken Palmer]

Hello Denita, how have you been doing? I hope all is well with you and your family. Well, as far as nude fitness goes for me, I have done both beach and court volleyball. The beach volleyball was at Black's Beach in either July or August of 1992. Also, the court volleyball was at Glen Eden Sun Club in June of '92. Other than that, that is pretty much all I have done in the nude. I am not a good swimmer, so swimming laps in the nude is out for me! However, I am looking to possibly participate in a 5K event at a nudist facility somewhere if I can find one near me hear in Southern California. Would you or anyone have any ideas or suggestions on where I can get hooked up somewhere? Thanks! Take care!

Ken Palmer

[nuovonudo]

denita,

the only nude exercise i've done is hiking nude, really more nature-walking nude, so it isn't really much of a workout.

on days i don't go to the gym i often do abdominal crunches in the morning before showering and getting (ugh!) dressed. since i sleep in the raw, i don't have to "change" before doing my crunches!

[swnudedude]

i love to hike nude and practice yoga nude..

[numec51]

Often lift weights nude here at home as well as run nude in the park and sometimes hike nude.

[Yasehtor]

Hiking, biking, running, yoga, swimming, walking, tennis..... all au naturel!:D

[nuovonudo]

oops, i forgot one: back when i had a home gym (bowflex) i tried working out nude. this must have been before i "rediscovered" my naturist tendencies, because i think i only tried it once.

a friend of mine suffered an injury to his arm and borrowed the bowflex and hasn't returned it yet, so i do my strength training at the ymca now, clothed of course.

[FireProf]

Thought I'd throw out a post asking what types of Fitness activities you've done nude?

I'll go first....(haha)....

Nude swimming....laps, not just splashing around.

Did my first nude 5K last weekend...fun!

Nude volleyball....hours of it...whewwww!

Nude weightlifting at Desert Shadows, Caliente and at home.

Nude walking on the beach.

How 'bout the rest of you?

Stay nude and healthy!
Dee


How the heck did I miss replying to this thread............and by my own buddy!!! Sorry D, here's my list;



Full circuit weight lifting at the former Desert Shadows and Caliente

Treadmill and eliptical machine at home

Nude beach walking every morning on Orient Beach (3 miles) for a week or sometimes longer every June. Nude beach walking at San Onofre Beach (2-3 miles) when we can get there.

Some nude swimming at our old house but not at our new one....pool a bit smaller.

Nude volleyball....water and sand.

Nude paddle tennis (at a friends home)....Nice little naturist resort he has.

Nude ping pong! (same friends house)

Nude jet skiing/waverunner

I'd like to try nude basketball, tennis and........Golf!!

FP :)

[rone]

The new WII Fit gives a nice, private way to workout nude. And I have been doing just that since I got one last week..

[NatureFred]

Can't believe I forgot to mention doing T'ai Chi nude. It's the greatest--waistbands and T'ai Chi really do not mix well at all. I think the Chi just gets bottlenecked there at your waist and throws off the whole form. (My wife has suggested I get a pair of bib overalls--but she was just messing with me.)

You have to have the right surface to do it barefoot, though. Hardwood floors==pretty good. Carpet==feasible, but yucky. Concrete==no way. Never tried tatami mats, but I bet they'd be the best.

[ktmndst84]

i have always wanted to do a naked triathalon

[BareItNZ]

I played more sports nude than clothed. A few where I think of on the moment, I did nude:
- Gym, Treadmills, Exercycles, Crosstrainers, Rowers, Weights & Benches, Pilates, etc.
- Basketball (shooting and games)
- Volleyball
- Beach volleyball
- Water volleyball
- Water polo
- Swimming
- Diving
- Snorkelling
- Bat and trap
- Baseball
- Golf
- Mini golf
- Dancing
- Walking
- Running
- Hiking / Tramping
- Horse riding
- Cycling (mountain biking)
- Highland games
- Bowles
- Boules
- Miniten
- Badminton
- Darts
- Billiards

[bernardc]

Martial arts.Doing martial arts like Ninjuitsu,Kung fu and Aikido and Jui jutsui s extreme fun!It just seems more natural to do it naked.I used to go around in body paint camoflage at night and totally naked.Even when cars passed me,they could not see that i was naked!The penis camoflage fused perfectly with the rest.One day i went to the beach in daylight,camoflaged,and no one actually noticed unless they were very close.
Kloofinf is a perfect exerscise for nudists.You fight rappids,do rock face climbing,and hikes,most of the time(85%) you are in rivers any way,so clothes arnt needed at all.

[mark_dee]

My wife and I go on naked hikes, frequently. I'm afraid it'll be a while before we do it again though since it's getting colder around here.

When I used to race mountain bikes, I'd always slip in a nude lap at whichever park I was in. Good fun!

[Ita3rd]

I've done nude swimming (just hanging around, not doing laps), running, and Tae Kwon Do. That's about the extent of my activities though.

[inudist]

Hiking is one of my favorite things to do nude. I have also gone running and swimming while nude a few times.

[jaypac33]

I am new to nudity but love it and slowly getting wife involved . Went to a local naturists area and played basketball with a mixed group. Everything was fine thre was body contact but nothing more than what should be in a game I had several instances where I was struck in the testicles and noticed that it had happened to several ohters also. I did see some of the ladies get struck in the brests and groin area. Nothing really hurt but having played clothed basketball and then nude I was hit more often or at least noticed it. At one point I needed a minute due to the pain. I saw some people playing street hocket and I was shocked.
