* Get a great workout in less time. (Your sand-running heart rate will match that of your street-running heart rate, but at lower mileage.)
* Significantly strengthen lower-body stabilizer muscles.
* Reduce your chance of injury (you’re forced to run at a slower pace).
* Get terrific strengthen and resistance training when you hit the deep sand
* Torch your quads with sand sprints, bettering your overall sprint speed.
Thanks for the question Sunny!
This is a pretty interesting question that I’ve been wondering myself. I live near SW Florida and wanted a better, less damaging, workout for your legs. The person whom answered first seems like he answered it head on.
[Can't wait to try this myself now!]
Best of luck!
