Fit Trip to Sandbox Fitness

Blog | March 31, 2015

Sandbox_fitness

 

If  you’ve been following me for a while, you already know that I haven’t stepped into a gym for about 8 years, and I’m ok to continue staying away from such places for years to come. I really love working out at home any time I want, or taking my training outdoors when an opportunity comes up. That’s simply how I’ve been keeping myself in shape, but I have always found the best motivation to be different sports and activities. I believe that being active and social is one of the most effective ways to ignite the spark for a healthy lifestyle. If you have fun being active, you’ll most likely do it again. The more times you do it, the faster it becomes a part of your life. You won’t know what rings your bell until you try it.  So hopefully my new series Fit Trip will get you out of the house and motivate you to try  different kinds of fitness hustle!

This week I went to Sandbox Fitness in Sherman Oaks, and met with the owners Minna & David who were really nice and showed me their unusual fitness studio and put me through some of the exercises to test my strength, balance and agility. Check out the video below.. and don’t laugh, it was my first time on a surfboard!

    YAY!! A field trip! I haven’t been on a field trip since elementary school (and I’m not going to tell you how LONG ago that was!! LOL!) This looks like a fun place to get your fitness on!!!! I own a TRX and a bosu ball and sometimes make up my own circuits using them both….looks quite similar!! Those TRX knee tucks are killer!!! I sometimes attach my sandbag to mine to make it even harder, if I’m looking for even more of a challenge!! Looking forward to your next fit trip!! 🙂

    I heard about this place, and the logistics makes total sense as some people do need a gym environment to motivate them. Or keep it structured. I used to live in the hills, and that natural environment got me in better shape than anything else

      Im sure you can find them somewhere… but I don’t think it would be as fun as going to the studio for this particular style of fitness and equipment.

    Zuzka you looked like you were having a great time. Looks very challenging for the core and stabilizer muscles. Something I would be willing to try. And I gotta say I love your workouts.

    What a great idea for a gym!! Loved watching you go through the moves, Zuzka. Very envious, here in Green Bay, Wisconsin! I do use a TRX in the gym, but WOW, how fun to use it on a surfboard!! Thanks for special video!

    You were great, Zuzka. What an innovative way to working out. I have seen the surf boards before but never in sand and then adding the TRX suspension strap system…GENIUS 🙂
