Who wants to work out when it’s sunny and the beach is calling your name?
Well, how about having the best of both worlds?
For the next few weeks, I will provide you with exercises you can do while hanging out at the beach with your friends. Once the workout is over, you can lounge as much as you like. Remember the old rule: “Work before play!”
Remember your sunscreen!
Playing volleyball with a partner: No need for nets or to recruit all your friends to play a game of volleyball. Instead, just grab a partner and practice bumping and volleying the ball back and forth to each other. If you can’t bump or volley, just play catch and throw while working your partner side to side, backwards and forwards. Play for 10 minutes or more.
Hip extension glute squeezes: Lay on your stomach with your stomach muscles contracted up and inwards. Bend one knee so the sole of the foot points up. Slowly lift that leg off your towel just a few inches while forcefully contracting your glutes. Do 13 to 20 reps on each leg. You should feel this in your glutes — your butt.
