    Ideas for beach sand/surf interval training workout?

    I'm a push ups and pull ups jump squats guy. I'd like to create a 20-30 minute routine that uses maybe running intervals in the surf or sand mixed in-between sets of the resistance exercises.

    Any recommended routines? 1 issue-I am not sure how to hit my back there are no pull up bars

    You're here in the OC too right? 1000 steps @ Salt Creek Beach. A large block away from my place. People do circuit there daily

      Not much you can do for back without a pull up bar or resistance. Supermans, bridges, and bird dogs are just about the only thing. Basically nothing that will build muscle lol

        rowing or paddling works the back good so would a sand crawl or using a rope to pull across it. sprints and burpy jumps would be good in the sand as well.

        if swimming against the waves isn't a good burn you are doing it wrong.. heh

          Swimming will crush your lats and delts. Especially if there's a good current. Or better yet, grab a surf board and paddle out. It's a fun way to work out with a reward at the end; you catch a nice wave.

            Appreciated. I'm surfing usually 2x a day but didn't think I can incorporate it into an internal resistance routine. It takes me a while to get turned back around and swim back out so I had figured that would mess up my interval timing. The rip tide in Hb is fierce too so I can angle a swim against it.

              You surf right? Why not paddle out, and back say 50 yards as fast as you can, then hit beach sand for some pushups, and jump squats. Then sprint 100 yards walk back, rinse repeat.

              I personally love to run on the beach sand, but in the thick stuff. Sometimes I run in knee deep water to mix it up a bit.

                The UDT Seals work out on the beach, maybe check that?
                Carbon is not the problem, it makes up 0.041% of our atmosphere , 95% of that is from Volcanos and decomposing plants and stuff. So people in the US are responsible for 13% of the carbon in the atmosphere which 95% is not from Humans, like cars and trucks and stuff and they want to spend trillions to fix it while Solar Panel plants are powered by coal plants
                think about that

                  I took some lessons and the only two things that scared the shit out of me were portuguese man o'war and rip tides... even compared to sharks hehe

                    I live about 500 meters from the beach, so this is what I normally do for interval training:

                    - I look around for an OK girl (say 6 out of 10) and try to chat her up; at this point a fat husband usually appears, so I just walk away

                    - then I look for a hotter girl (8 out of 10) and try to chat her up; now, a semi-fit husband appears, so I just run away

                    - then I look for the hottest topless girl on the beach and I approach her. 99% of the time, a massive motherfucker, covered head to toes in tattoos appears and I run as fast as I can

                    That's about it, very effective

                            so let's say

                            1 50 yard and back paddle
                            max pushups
                            50 yd sand sprint
                            max jump squats

                            rest/ recover

                            repeat.

                            Prolly won't be able to do that more than 4-5 times starting off.

                            that's got to be a decent workout eh?

                              I just googled this, looks super nice. further south than where we're hanging out, but that dana point is on the to-do list, we'll hit this beach then for sure.

                                I hear ya, the rip tide here can mess with your mind too. it's relentless and easy to get stuck in.

                                      Hell yeah. You could even throw in a set of burpees. Just keep your mouth closed or you may end up swallowing some sand.

                                        Talked to a trainer friend of mine and he recommended isometric movements. If you bring a towel and use your own bodys resistance. i.e. bent over towel row. Put your foot in the middle of a towel and pull up as hard as you can while bent over holding the ends of the towel.



                                        Im sure you can think of a whole plethora of new movements by doing this, you just have to be creative. Hell...bring a shovel and dig...thats great for your lats, bis and forearms.

                                          Thanks for the input! I like the idea of the towel isometrics too. Gonna start this in the morning.

                                            what about crabbing along the sand on your elbows, drag feet and walk with arms in push up position, run up and down sand dunes, 30 second sprint in soft sand and 30second jog rinse and repeat.

                                            I love training on the beach - cool down with a swim is the best part of it.
