30 Nov Exercises to do at the beach

Posted at 17:41h in Uncategorized by

During summer, we tend to go out more and relax, which can sometimes lead us to lose a bit of our fitness. To prevent that, here are some simple exercises to do at the beach that you can perform anytime while enjoying your well-deserved rest—right next to the sea.

Brisk walking

Before jumping straight into intense activity, it’s essential to warm up your muscles. A 10-minute brisk walk along the shore is perfect.

The sand provides great cushioning, reducing stress on your joints, and you’ll also enjoy direct contact with nature as you warm up.

Stretching

Start by stretching your arms—make 10 gentle backward circles with each arm.

Then, stretch your legs by rising onto your tiptoes 10 times on each foot. Repeat this set at least three times per leg.

Squats

Once warmed up, you can begin with simple squats—do at least 10 reps.

Want to intensify it? Bring some small weights with you to add resistance and work those leg muscles even more.

Knee lifts

Another easy beach exercise: raise your knees high and hold them at the top for at least 15 seconds. It’s great for core and leg activation.

Power jumps

Take advantage of the soft sand for explosive jumps. Jump as high as you can for 45 seconds straight, repeating the session at least 5 times.

To make it more challenging, try doing these in the shallow water. Being in the sea adds resistance, and you can control the depth to suit your level. The closer you are to shore, the easier it’ll be—progress deeper to intensify your workout.

Ab workouts

A classic that never fails—especially for those wanting to keep those abs tight. Lay on your back, place your hands behind your head with elbows out, and do 20 crunches.

Repeat this set depending on your desired intensity. Even doing it just once a day can help keep your abs in shape throughout your vacation.

Glute bridges

Don’t skip glutes! Lay on your back on a towel and lift your hips 25 times, controlling the movement.
