best beach body workouts for Summer Bristol

August is nearly upon us, and that means our Henleaze and Clifton personal trainers are being asked what the best beach body workouts for Summer in Bristol.


At this time of year, many people are preparing for their annual vacations and make a big final push to get more toned, fitter, and ready to enjoy their break.


While we would advocate a consistent and ongoing personal fitness training programme, there are a number of short and intense beach body workouts that can be adopted to deliver positive results in less than a month.


Some of the best beach body workouts for Summer in Bristol include:


Full-body HIIT workouts


High-IntensityInterval Training (HIIT) is an effective way to burn calories while also improving cardiovascular fitness for a beach body look in Bristol.


Many HIIT workouts alternate between 45 seconds of high-intensity exercise and 15 seconds of rest.


Typical HIIT circuit exercises include Burpees, Jump Squats, Push-Ups and High Knees.


Strength Training for Leaner Looks


Building lean muscle helps to increase metabolism and deliver a toned look for Summer in Bristol. It is a great way to prepare for a beach body result.


We advise clients to focus on compound exercises that work multiple muscle groups at the same time.


Exercise routines at Active8 for a bespoke fitness plan involving strength training can often include Squats, Deadlifts, Bench Press and Shoulder Presses.


Core-Focused Workouts


A strong core supports better posture, improves performance and enhances overall stability. It also delivers a great beach body workout for Summer.


Some of the best beach body workouts for your core include planks, Russian Twists, Bicycle Crunches and Leg Raises.

For clients who are on the move and do not have access to gym equipment on holiday, we also recommend improvised beach body workout strategies that utilise gravity, body weight and natural resistance.


These can be incorporated using bodyweight circuit training, sprint intervals, and resistance band training. Ask our personal trainers for more detail.


It is worth noting that the above advice and guidance are general hints and tips only. At Active8, we specialise in providing bespoke, 1-2-1, highly effective personal training to help every client reach their individual fitness goals.
