More Beach Exercises!

I know that you love to relax at the beach.  We all do!  The good news is that there are lots of fun exercises that you can do at the beach…and then you can relax guilt free.  You may have tried the beach exercises that I gave you in this blog post and now I have 4 more exercises that you can try!

#1: Play catch or Frisbee: Catching and throwing a ball or a flying disc with a friend will definitely challenge your agility. Play for 10 minutes or more.

#2: Outer thigh lifts: Lay on your side with your legs straight and positioned one on top of the other. Now slowly lift the top leg a few inches and release. Just before you touch the other leg, lift again. Do 13-20 reps each leg. This one targets your outer thigh area.

 

#3: Push-ups: Lay on your stomach with your abdominals contracted. Place your hands a few inches beside your shoulders. Now slowly push up and then release. Do 13-20 reps from a toe or knee position. This one’s good for the chest, shoulders and arms.

 

#4: Abdominal leg lifts: Lay on your back with your legs slightly bent. Keep your abdominals contracted and your back in a neutral position. Now slowly lift one leg a few inches off the sand while ensuring your back does not move at all. Repeat 8-15x each leg. This exercise is great for your abdominals.
