It’s time for some fun in the sun! Whether you’re headed to the beach, pool or lake, this workout sculpts and tones your total body while utilizing common beach day essentials like your towel, beach ball and sand pail! Feel free to use any ball if you don’t have a beach ball, and a dumbbell or kettlebell in place of the beach pail.

Hold a towel lengthwise and bring your your arms straight above your head, creating a “Y” shape. Keep arms straight as you bend from side to side to stretch out your waistline.
Bring your arms in front of you, hands in line with shoulders. Keeping hips facing forward and arms straight, rotate your torso from side to side.

A BEACH BALL

Place feet a little wider than shoulder width apart, feet angled outwards at 45 degrees. Bring the ball to your right foot as you squat down. Then, spiral upwards, brining the ball up above your left shoulder. Repeat 20 times before switching sides
move two
Place the ball between your thighs, squeezing your legs to keep it in place as you squat down. Repeat 10 times.

Place feet a little wider than shoulder width apart, feet angled outwards at 45 degrees. Holding the pail in your right hand, palm facing your body, bring it down to the ground as you squat.
