Sagittarius (November 22–December 21)

- The Geminis of this world need to be fully engaged in what they are doing in order to stick to it. They need a form of exercise that will keep them captivated.

Tennis
- For that reason, and also because Geminis love to make friends, Ridout suggests a partner or team sport, such as tennis. Other options include rowing, baseball, and lacrosse.

Cancer (June 21–July 22)
- The Cancer sign has a focus on strength, and Cancers are at their best when they have a strong core, both physically and emotionally.

17 / 29 Fotos
Scorpio (October 23–November 21)
- Scorpio is the water sign that's all about physical and emotional depth. According to Ridout, it is best for Scorpios to do a form of exercise that has a slower pace.
© Shutterstock
18 / 29 Fotos
Yoga
- Something like yoga, for example, is a great form of exercise that gives a slow burn while connecting the body with the mind. If you're not into yoga, try working out with resistance bands.
© Shutterstock
19 / 29 Fotos
Pisces (February 19–March 20)
- Pisces are at home in the water, as it's their natural element. Anything water-based is great for a Pisces, whether it's swimming, water polo, or aqua aerobics.

- While walking the dog may not be considered as strenuous as other forms of exercise, in fact walking is a great way to get the body moving and the blood pumping.

Virgo (August 23–September 22)
- Just like their fellow Tauruses, Virgos are practical, but they are also detail-oriented. Anything technical that requires great focus is perfect for Virgos.
