Beaches And Bikinis
Sun, sand, and sea! Beaches are absolute fun, especially in the summer. Of course, let’s not forget the barely-there bikinis that offer quite an eyeful.
String bikinis are the most incorrigible because if the lady wearing one has a fabulous body to flaunt, the combination is a certified head turner. Without doubt, many would agree it’s a pleasure to watch.
I and a string bikini have a long way to go before a friendship can develop. For the rest of you, though, a string bikini workout is waiting to turn you into a sexy water babe.
Just in case, here’s a fun fact. This workout is not necessarily practiced in a string bikini, although if you wish to do so, go ahead and inspire yourself by all means. A beach location wouldn’t be so bad either.
The workout guarantees to,
- Burn a ton of calories
- Raise your heart beat
- Tone important muscle groups
- Burn fat
- Make you look bikini ready
Perform a set of 5 exercises in a row, repeating each one at least 8 times. Rest for 20 seconds between each exercise. After 1 set, rest for a minute and continue the set two more times. This is the workout routine.

Now for the string bikini exercises
1. Bicep Curls
- Make sure you warm up before the workout with a few basic stretches.
- Following that, hold a stretchy, rubbery strap in your hands, long enough to pull between your feet and hands.
- Stand with your feet placed slightly apart on the strap.
- Hold either end of it with each hand.
- Bend the hands at the elbows.
- The strap offers resistance, much like a dumbbell.
- If you don’t have a strap, a dumbbell will also do the trick.
- Now begin to curl your hands towards your chest, feeling the pull of the strap (1).
- Return and continue the bicep curls for 8 repetitions.
2. Shoulder Squeeze
- Stand with your legs hip-width apart.
- Hold the stretchable strap in your hands.
- Extend the arms ahead, without bending the elbows.
- Your hands must hold the strap and should be parallel to your shoulders.
- Now stretch the strap completely until your arms are fully extended beside you.
- Simultaneously, squeeze your shoulder blades.
- Return and repeat the motion 8 times.
3. Dumbbell Squat
- You surely need two dumbbells for this. Hold them in either hand.
- Stand with feet placed slightly apart.
- Bend your knees until you’re in a squat, hands resting on either side.
- As you rise, move your hands upwards and raise them over your head.
- Immediately continue to lower them as you prepare to squat.
- Practice 8 repetitions.
4. High Knee Lunges
- This is a slight variation of the traditional lunges.
- First, lunge forward with the left leg.
- Hold the left knee at a right angle to the ground, keeping both hands on either side of the foot.
- Here, power up your body, raise and jump high.
- This high knee jump should bring your right knee to your navel and your elbows by your sides.
- Return to first position and lunge with the right leg.
- Next, jump high with the left knee.
- Continue 8 repetitions.
5. Plank Runner
- Get down on your hands and feet.
- Lie in a plank position, face down, arms parallel and directly below the shoulders.
- Keep your body off the floor, straight and aligned.
- Here, bring one knee inwards towards your chest.
- Return to first position and bend the other knee inwards.
- Repeat the movement continuously for 8 repetitions.
