Beach Sprints<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen you\u2019re running in sand you\u2019ll have to push harder with every stride because the sand \u2018gives\u2019 underneath the weight of your body,\u201d says SoCal-based trainer Mike Donavanik, C.S.C.S. This \u201cgive\u201d ups the demand placed on your glutes, hamstrings, and quads\u2014three of your body\u2019s biggest muscle groups. The result: more muscle formed, more calories scorched, and athleticism gained. In fact, a 2013 study published in the <a href=\"http:\/\/journals.lww.com\/nsca-jscr\/Abstract\/2013\/12000\/Effect_of_Surface_Specific_Training_on_20_m_Sprint.36.aspx\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><em>Journal of Strength and Conditioning<\/em><\/a><em> Research <\/em>found that athletes who ran sprints on sand for eight weeks improved their 20-meter sprint performance significantly more than those who stuck to more stable surfaces.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Turn up the burn: <\/strong>Swap out a steady-state run for a series of sprints. Donavanik recommends running 10 to 15 30-second sprints in the sand, giving yourself 90 seconds of recovery between rounds. Start out on the packed sand close to the water, and once you handle that, increase the intensity even more by taking your sprints either into super-shallow water or up onto the looser, dry sand.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Related: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/blog\/2017\/05\/16\/hiit-workout-benefits\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Should You Be Doing A HIIT Workout?<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<h2><noscript><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"12576\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/blog\/beach-workouts\/bodyweight-sized-copy\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/bodyweight-sized-Copy.jpg?fit=740%2C307&ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"740,307\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{"aperture":"0","credit":"","camera":"","caption":"","created_timestamp":"0","copyright":"","focal_length":"0","iso":"0","shutter_speed":"0","title":"","orientation":"1"}\" data-image-title=\"bodyweight sized &#8211; Copy\" data-image-description data-image-caption data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/bodyweight-sized-Copy.jpg?fit=300%2C124&ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/bodyweight-sized-Copy.jpg?fit=740%2C307&ssl=1\" tabindex=\"0\" role=\"button\" class=\"size-full wp-image-12576 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/bodyweight-sized-Copy.jpg?resize=740%2C307&ssl=1\" alt width=\"740\" height=\"307\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/bodyweight-sized-Copy.jpg?w=740&ssl=1 740w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/bodyweight-sized-Copy.jpg?resize=300%2C124&ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/bodyweight-sized-Copy.jpg?resize=272%2C113&ssl=1 272w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 740px) 100vw, 740px\"><\/noscript><img decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"12576\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/blog\/beach-workouts\/bodyweight-sized-copy\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/bodyweight-sized-Copy.jpg?fit=740%2C307&ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"740,307\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{"aperture":"0","credit":"","camera":"","caption":"","created_timestamp":"0","copyright":"","focal_length":"0","iso":"0","shutter_speed":"0","title":"","orientation":"1"}\" data-image-title=\"bodyweight sized &#8211; Copy\" data-image-description data-image-caption data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/bodyweight-sized-Copy.jpg?fit=300%2C124&ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/bodyweight-sized-Copy.jpg?fit=740%2C307&ssl=1\" tabindex=\"0\" role=\"button\" class=\"size-full wp-image-12576 aligncenter lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns%3D%22http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg%22%20viewBox%3D%220%200%20740%20307%22%3E%3C%2Fsvg%3E\" alt width=\"740\" height=\"307\" srcset=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns%3D%22http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg%22%20viewBox%3D%220%200%20740%20307%22%3E%3C%2Fsvg%3E 740w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 740px) 100vw, 740px\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/bodyweight-sized-Copy.jpg?w=740&ssl=1 740w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/bodyweight-sized-Copy.jpg?resize=300%2C124&ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/bodyweight-sized-Copy.jpg?resize=272%2C113&ssl=1 272w\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/bodyweight-sized-Copy.jpg\"><strong style=\"font-family: 'Josefin Sans', Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 1.4375rem; text-transform: uppercase;\">2. Bodyweight Exercises<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Who needs <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/blog\/2017\/04\/19\/dumbbell-exercises\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">dumbbells<\/a> when you\u2019ve got a beach? When you\u2019re in the sand, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/blog\/2017\/03\/22\/bodyweight-exercises\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">bodyweight workouts<\/a> train your body\u2019s small stabilizer muscles (because of that \u2018give\u2019), which are key for injury prevention. Create a quick circuit by combining large, compound bodyweight exercises such as squats, push-ups, lunges, and glute bridges for a total-body workout, recommends Colorado-based Kourtney Thomas, C.S.C.S. Drills like skips, butt-kicks, marches, and spiderman scrawls also become crazy-hard in the sand, says corrective exercise specialist Dani Almeyda, M.S., C.E.S., co-owner of Original Strength in North Carolina.<\/p>\n<!-- Shortcode [rr-products] does not match the conditions -->\n<p><strong>Turn up the burn: <\/strong>To get the most out of the bodyweight exercises you choose, Thomas recommends performing AMRAPs (as many reps as possible) of each move. When your form starts to break down, or you seriously can\u2019t do any more, move onto the next exercise. Perform your circuit three to five times. To take it to the next level, try making your moves more explosive: Squats become jump squats, lunges become scissor lunges, and pushups become burpees, Thomas says. Since you won\u2019t have a hard surface to push off, these moves will feel harder than ever.<\/p>\n<h2><strong style=\"font-family: 'Josefin Sans', Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 1.4375rem; text-transform: uppercase;\">3. Beach Volleyball<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>All that running, jumping, and diving after the ball will jack up your heart rate and challenge your muscles, resulting in a serious (and fun) calorie burn. In fact, you can burn up to twice as many calories playing volleyball in the sand than you would playing on a hard gymnasium floor, according to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.health.harvard.edu\/diet-and-weight-loss\/calories-burned-in-30-minutes-of-leisure-and-routine-activities\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Harvard Medical School<\/a>. What better way to get in a solid workout with your friends?!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Turn up the burn: <\/strong>Fewer players on the sand means more work for you. Try a game of one-on-one so you have to run, jump, and lunge over more surface area to defend your side of the court, says Hannah Davis, C.S.C.S., creator of Operation Bikini Body. She recommends playing for at least 20 minutes to tap into your fat metabolism.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Related: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/blog\/2017\/01\/17\/metabolism-myths\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>5 Myths About Your Metabolism\u2014Busted<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<h2><noscript><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"12574\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/blog\/beach-workouts\/paddle-board-sized-copy\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/paddle-board-sized-Copy.jpg?fit=740%2C307&ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"740,307\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{"aperture":"0","credit":"","camera":"","caption":"","created_timestamp":"0","copyright":"","focal_length":"0","iso":"0","shutter_speed":"0","title":"","orientation":"1"}\" data-image-title=\"paddle board sized &#8211; Copy\" data-image-description data-image-caption data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/paddle-board-sized-Copy.jpg?fit=300%2C124&ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/paddle-board-sized-Copy.jpg?fit=740%2C307&ssl=1\" tabindex=\"0\" role=\"button\" class=\"size-full wp-image-12574 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/paddle-board-sized-Copy.jpg?resize=740%2C307&ssl=1\" alt width=\"740\" height=\"307\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/paddle-board-sized-Copy.jpg?w=740&ssl=1 740w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/paddle-board-sized-Copy.jpg?resize=300%2C124&ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/paddle-board-sized-Copy.jpg?resize=272%2C113&ssl=1 272w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 740px) 100vw, 740px\"><\/noscript><img decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"12574\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/blog\/beach-workouts\/paddle-board-sized-copy\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/paddle-board-sized-Copy.jpg?fit=740%2C307&ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"740,307\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{"aperture":"0","credit":"","camera":"","caption":"","created_timestamp":"0","copyright":"","focal_length":"0","iso":"0","shutter_speed":"0","title":"","orientation":"1"}\" data-image-title=\"paddle board sized &#8211; Copy\" data-image-description data-image-caption data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/paddle-board-sized-Copy.jpg?fit=300%2C124&ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/paddle-board-sized-Copy.jpg?fit=740%2C307&ssl=1\" tabindex=\"0\" role=\"button\" class=\"size-full wp-image-12574 aligncenter lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns%3D%22http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg%22%20viewBox%3D%220%200%20740%20307%22%3E%3C%2Fsvg%3E\" alt width=\"740\" height=\"307\" srcset=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns%3D%22http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg%22%20viewBox%3D%220%200%20740%20307%22%3E%3C%2Fsvg%3E 740w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 740px) 100vw, 740px\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/paddle-board-sized-Copy.jpg?w=740&ssl=1 740w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/paddle-board-sized-Copy.jpg?resize=300%2C124&ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/paddle-board-sized-Copy.jpg?resize=272%2C113&ssl=1 272w\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/paddle-board-sized-Copy.jpg\"><strong style=\"font-family: 'Josefin Sans', Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 1.4375rem; text-transform: uppercase;\">4. Stand-Up Paddle Boarding<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>This water sport continues to gain popularity\u2014and for good reason, Almeyda says. Propelling yourself through the water while standing on a board engages all of your muscles, while also challenging your balance and coordination.<br>\n<strong><br>\n<\/strong><strong>Turn up the burn: <\/strong>Use Mother Nature to your advantage when looking for ways to make paddling more difficult. Increase the resistance by paddling against the wind, tide, or current. You can also try standing up on the board instead of kneeling for a greater core and leg workout. To stay safe, head out from the beach (most resorts have rentals) and stick to shallow areas.<\/p>\n<h2><strong style=\"font-family: 'Josefin Sans', Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 1.4375rem; text-transform: uppercase;\">5. Playing with Your Dog<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>To ensure you don\u2019t laze away the whole day, get your pup involved. Just make sure you pack a ball or Frisbee. After all, one review published in the <a href=\"http:\/\/journals.humankinetics.com\/doi\/abs\/10.1123\/jpah.10.5.750\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><em>Journal of Physical Activity & Health<\/em><\/a> found that dog owners were more likely to meet recommended physical activity guidelines than those who are Fido-free. And your dog\u2019s seaside energy will certainly give you a workout.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Turn up the burn: <\/strong>Don\u2019t make your dog do all the work. Once you throw the ball or Frisbee, jog or run after your pooch. If you\u2019re feeling competitive, have someone else throw the ball and see if you can beat your canine to the prize, Davis recommends.<\/p>\n<p><strong><noscript><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"12575\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/blog\/beach-workouts\/swimming-sized-copy\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/swimming-sized-Copy.jpg?fit=740%2C307&ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"740,307\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{"aperture":"0","credit":"","camera":"","caption":"","created_timestamp":"0","copyright":"","focal_length":"0","iso":"0","shutter_speed":"0","title":"","orientation":"1"}\" data-image-title=\"swimming sized &#8211; Copy\" data-image-description data-image-caption data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/swimming-sized-Copy.jpg?fit=300%2C124&ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/swimming-sized-Copy.jpg?fit=740%2C307&ssl=1\" tabindex=\"0\" role=\"button\" class=\"size-full wp-image-12575 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/swimming-sized-Copy.jpg?resize=740%2C307&ssl=1\" alt width=\"740\" height=\"307\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/swimming-sized-Copy.jpg?w=740&ssl=1 740w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/swimming-sized-Copy.jpg?resize=300%2C124&ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/swimming-sized-Copy.jpg?resize=272%2C113&ssl=1 272w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 740px) 100vw, 740px\"><\/noscript><img decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"12575\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/blog\/beach-workouts\/swimming-sized-copy\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/swimming-sized-Copy.jpg?fit=740%2C307&ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"740,307\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{"aperture":"0","credit":"","camera":"","caption":"","created_timestamp":"0","copyright":"","focal_length":"0","iso":"0","shutter_speed":"0","title":"","orientation":"1"}\" data-image-title=\"swimming sized &#8211; Copy\" data-image-description data-image-caption data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/swimming-sized-Copy.jpg?fit=300%2C124&ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/swimming-sized-Copy.jpg?fit=740%2C307&ssl=1\" tabindex=\"0\" role=\"button\" class=\"size-full wp-image-12575 aligncenter lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns%3D%22http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg%22%20viewBox%3D%220%200%20740%20307%22%3E%3C%2Fsvg%3E\" alt width=\"740\" height=\"307\" srcset=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns%3D%22http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg%22%20viewBox%3D%220%200%20740%20307%22%3E%3C%2Fsvg%3E 740w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 740px) 100vw, 740px\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/swimming-sized-Copy.jpg?w=740&ssl=1 740w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/swimming-sized-Copy.jpg?resize=300%2C124&ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/swimming-sized-Copy.jpg?resize=272%2C113&ssl=1 272w\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/swimming-sized-Copy.jpg\"><\/strong><\/p>\n<h2><strong>6.
