Easter has passed, and this normally marks the time of year when everyone starts thinking about their holidays, so we thought we would give you a great beach body workout to kickstart ‘Mission Beach Body!’

We all know that there isn’t one single magic “once-a-week” workout which will get you that beach body you’re after. If you’ve been around the motive8 North Team or read our blogs, you will know that it takes regular training and a healthy to get that beach body. However, here’s a beach body workout which could supplement your existing routine, or even be performed on your “rest day”. It’s a tabata style HIIT session using body weight exercises – with an extra boost of burn from skipping between each round!

Remember to start with a thorough warm up.
