The beach is a great place to unwind and focus on your sun salutations. But yoga isn’t the only way to work up a sweat on summer’s stomping ground. Those looking to get their hearts pumping should try running on the beach (with or without sneakers). Another option? High-intensity interval training, according to SLT and FitHouse instructor Tatiana Lampa. The uneven surface and shifting sand creates a great natural resistance that’ll make HIIT that much more challenging.
The fitness pro teaches sweat sessions in the Hamptons (AKA the number one summer weekend getaway destination for New Yorkers) where she’s had plenty of time to perfect her sandy HIIT sequences. Below she shares her favorite full-body beach moves. Repeat the circuit five times through for a 30 minute HIIT workout.
