Beach volley makes for an awesome full body workout that targets and tones the legs, arms, shoulders and abs. During a game you’re continuously on the move, changing direction, squatting, diving, jumping, serving or hitting. You’re also moving on sand, which is more difficult and boosts calorie burn further.
Calorie burn: Incredibly, beach volleyball burns about 290 calories, which is basically equal to that of running at 5 mph (or a 12 minute mile).
