Day 68- Beach Body Workout

Beach Body Workout:

This workout is intended to be done on the dry soft sand. The sand provides an uneven moving surface, causing your body to work harder to balance, and as a result burning more calories. The sand is also easier on your joints, so jumping and running is less of an impact activity. If you aren't near a beach, no worries you can still do this workout anywhere.

1. Box Sprints- Timed for 1 minute. Start at one marker and sprint to a second marker. Face first marker and shuffle right 8 times. Turn so you're facing the second marker and jog backward to the first marker. Facing second marker, shuffle right 8 times. Continue until your minute is up.

2. Push-ups- 15x

3. Mountain Climbers- 25x each leg

4. Pike Crunches or V-ups- Legs straight, touch toes (Video) 20x

5. Sprints- Pick a marker a good 40 yards away, sprint to it, turn around and sprint back to your starting point. Repeat

6. Jump squats- 10x

Repeat entire workout at least 3 times through.

Pura Vida!
