15 Minute Beach Workout

by Men's Health

Storm the beach with this lower-body workout on the sand.

Blast through sand with this lower-body beach workout. "Sand provides less stability, making the simplest movements much tougher," says Robert dos Remedios, C.S.C.S.

Avoid the compacted stuff near the water (it's best for running) -- it's too hard on your ankles. For these exercises, go barefoot on a soft, flat area. Do two sets of each exercise, resting 30 seconds between sets and 60 seconds between exercises. Repeat the circuit, then reapply your sunscreen.

Muscles worked: quadriceps, calves, hamstrings, and gluteals.
