Lunge Twists

Start in a standing position with your paddle behind your back, forearms resting comfortably over the top of the paddle. Step the right foot forward, and lunge the front knee into a 90 degree angle-making sure the knee doesn’t go past the ankle. Twist the torso to the right on the exhale. Inhale to step the left leg to meet the right and repeat on the left side. Complete five rounds on each side.

Burpies

Start by standing tall with your paddle over your head, and then jump as high as you can! Bring the paddle down to the sand, plant your palms, and jump your feet back into plank pose, with the torso in one long line. Hold for one breath, and then jump your feet back to your hands. Grab your paddle and jump high in the sand again. Repeat 10x.
