Here is a workout I did today that you are going to love. It’s a cardio based workout using a kettlebell and a TRX Suspension Trainer. I did this outside to get out of Supreme Ultimate Fitness for the day. I actually brought 2 16kg (35lb) kettlebells and a TRX. I did this on the beach and at 9am it was already 85 degrees and HOT!
Below is that actual workout.
- Warm Up – Hand-hand swings for 30 reps
- Warm up – TRX back stretches and shoulder rotations
- Set 1: 10 kettlebell snatches L/R (20 total), TRX Chest Press 12 reps

Active Recovery: 1 mile walking in water waste deep – the ocean was totally calm and clear and it was amazing to have the sun on my back the little fish swimming at my feet. One of the best workouts I have ever had.

Using kettlebells on the beach for an intense workout is awesome. I break away from Supreme Ultimate Fitness in Boca Raton and head down to the beach once a week and use the bells in the sand. W work of caution; training with kettlebells on the beach is for advanced lifters only. The sand is soft and creates a very unstable foundation so you must be solid in your kettlebell technique and know how to stay rooted.
Here was my workout for today, kettlebells on the beach!
Two 80 lb kettlebells – You can use lighter is you want.
- 10 sets of Farmers walks superset with 10 swings
- 5 x 5 suitcase deadlift
- 3 supersets one arm rows (5 reps) and push ups (10)
- 3 sets of push press 3 reps L/R
- 2 sets clean and press 3 reps L/R
- 2 sets 5 reps floor press
- 4 supersets goblet squats (5) swings (10)
- probably more that I am forgetting because the heat wore me out
Working with double 80lb bells in the sand is hard work, especially the farmers walks.Check out this great kettlebell book below.
