Beach Activewear & Yoga Apparel ~ for taking that workout from the gym to the beach

The unusual summer of 2020 has forced many changes in our lives — one of which is that with gyms closed there are many of us working out in the great outdoors. So these are the days of the beach workout. Whether it’s yoga, cardio or good ol’ pushups, you can get a great workout while out at the beach.

Here we take a look at some great beach workout apparel, as well as accessories like yoga mats and towels that will keep the sand off!

Ocean Breeze Yoga Mat

Ocean Breeze Yoga Mat

Ya know, I remember when yoga mats were just plain solid colors (usually blue or black). Since they were just meant to be functional there wasn’t a lot of attention paid to the look of the things. But now… Wow! A cool ocean mural on your yoga mat. Fantastic!

6 Pack Women’s Yoga Running Headbands Sports Workout Hair Bands

Sweat… well, it’s a good thing in that it means that you’re getting a good workout in, but it’s bad in terms of… well, it’s sweat. So a stylish headband can be just the thing to come to the rescue.

Women’s Quick-Dry Workout Sports Active Running Shorts

Women’s Quick-Dry Workout Sports Active Running Shorts

Spandex has come a long way, hasn’t it? It’s a great material for workout shorts and leggings, but in the past there wasn’t a lot done with it style-wise (except maybe for Van Halen frontman David Lee Roth’s tiger-stripes). I think it’s great that these spandex shorts have a stylish design and a great cut to them.

High Waist Workout Biker Yoga Running Compression Exercise Shorts

High Waist Workout Biker Yoga Running Compression Exercise Shorts

This is a great hybrid of yoga pants and biking shorts. The cut really works for those big stretching workouts and yet you can cycle away from the beach in them as well.

Skorts solve what I always saw as a big problem: You want to hit the coffee shop on your way to the workout but you don’t want to wear your workout wear into the coffee shop. Behold, the skort! (they’re also really comfortable to work out in as well!)

If your workout takes you trekking across hot sand you need something on those feet. I’ve found that reinforced skin socks like these are an excellent solution.

When taking your workout outside of the gym (like, say, a beach) there are certain pieces of workout equipment that you need to take with you. These booty bands (I actually can’t believe they call them that, but whatever) replace that all-important gym machine in working out those hip flexors and thighs.

Let’s say that you’re the type who likes to make a statement. Well, I can think of no better way to make a statement during your beach workout than with these palm tree print yoga pants.

Extra Thick High Density Anti-Tear Exercise Yoga Mat

I’m a fan of thicker padding on my yoga mat, and this one delivers. Plus I know that many you will appreciate that the extra thick mat is harder to tear (I know that I’ve torn a few, so anti-tear, like this one is a fantastic trait).

Compact Beach Blanket Sand Proof and Water Resistant

Sand-Free Beach Mat

I remember when these sand-free beach mats came out a few years back. They seemed like the most amazing thing, didn’t they? (Actually, if I’m being honest I still think that they are amazing!) Being able to sit sand-free on a beach is a real blessing.

Dock & Bay Quick Dry Towel for Pilates – Lagoon Blue

If you’re the type who likes beaches that are off the beaten path, then you know you need to hike that unbeaten path to get to that beach. And on the return hike, a quick-drying towel is a wonderful thing… And actually, now that I think about it, even on that beaten path sometimes the journey to where your car is parked can be lengthy enough that, again, a quick-drying towel makes for a wonderful thing.
