Now that the summer heat has released some of its grip it’s nice to use it to relax, read a book, enjoy the view, or not…. For those who enjoy being active even by the sea here is a fun and challenging workout. This workout needs little space, no equipment and can be done alone or even with your friends by putting in a bit of competitive edge in the workout.
Warming up:
One can decide for a quick jog or some dynamic stretching. I enjoy incorporating movements to increase one’s heart rate and pump blood in the whole body.
3 rounds of:
20 Jumping jacks
10 Air squats
10 Crunches
10 Push ups

This workout can be moulded depending on one’s fitness level by increasing rounds of the workout or increasing the repetitions in one full round.
