How To Train On Sand
| Health And Fitness : Exercise Guide If you undertake some resistance training or running as part of your exercise problem, and live near the coast, then running on sand may very well be a useful addition to your program. If you do run and train on sand, then you need to ensure that you use the right technique. The key is to lean forward when you run, as opposed to standing up straight as on dry land. This will keep your momentum pushing you forward as you run on the less even surface. Also try to run on a flat beach - running uphill on piles of sand can be unpredictable and potentially dangerous. When it comes to the technique you use, you will need to be much more active with your toes - literally try to 'dig' your toes into the sand on each stride and always land toes first.
